Pijp rokende man 1799

"Pijp rokende man" (1799) is an engraving by A.F. Brauer that depicts a man in a dark, dimly lit room. The man is seated at a table, and is in the act of lighting his pipe from a candle. The work, measuring 362 mm x 255 mm, has the title "Le fameux de Subuo" and the text "gravé d'après le tableau original de Langelandt," which indicates the artist was copying a painting by Langelandt. The scene is a common genre subject matter, and the artist uses chiaroscuro effectively to create depth and atmosphere.
