Willem (I) Steelink's "Groepsportret van vier leden van het gezelschap M.A.B. in een schildersatelier" (1882) is a black and white depiction of four men in a painter's studio. The men are casually dressed in suits, with one lounging in a chair, while another stands by a easel. The relaxed postures and the presence of a dog suggest a scene of camaraderie among artists. Steelink was a renowned Dutch painter known for his portraits and genre scenes. This artwork provides a glimpse into the social life of artists during the 19th century. The use of chiaroscuro and the detailed depiction of the figures and the studio interior are characteristic of Steelink's style.
