This detail of Frans Hals’s *The company of Captain Reinier Reael and Lieutenant Cornelis Michielsz. Blaeuw, known as the ‘Meagre Company’* (1637), showcases the Dutch Golden Age master's dynamic portrayal of individuals. The painting captures the distinct personalities of the militia company members through Hals’ signature loose brushstrokes and lively expressions, even in this cropped section. The depiction of these men in their military garb and with weapons at the ready exemplifies the civic pride and military preparedness that characterized the Dutch Republic during this period.
