The subject falls within a genre of Dutch Golden Age art called <em>\u2018vrolijk\u00a0gezelschap\u2019<\/em> (in English: \u2018merry company<em>\u2019)<\/em>, where a small gathering of characters is often depicted having a good time with spirits and accompanying music. This painting depicts two musicians playing to the great enjoyment of the tavern guests seen in front of the tavern and through one of its windows. The background reveals a large plain, where a fisherman can be spotted as well as a rider approaching the festive spectacle. Not much is known about the artist Gert van Hens (Heus). However, this scene, with its festive peasant life in the foreground and evocative landscape in the background, appears to be heavily inspired by Isack van Ostade\u2019s village scenes.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>Translator: The translation agency <em>Diction\u00a0\u2013 <\/em><em>J.
