Genre scene
Valuable and amusing painting on a small panel with the representation of a man intent on extracting lice from the hair of a friend, according to the usual style of the Flemish painter Adriaen Brouwer. The artist, famous for his intelligent and lively depictions of episodes often trivial and linked to the themes of drunkenness and the life of the taverns, also in this case uses a safe and fast brushstroke, the use of a flickering light and revealing and the adoption of grotesque and caricatured physical types
