About the piece
Painted in 1741, this work by Cornelis Troost depicts a scene from Thomas Asselijn's play 'The Spendthrift' (De Spilpenning). The composition showcases the artist's masterful ability to capture the costume and decor of the Dutch Enlightenment, set against a striking crimson-walled room filled with porcelain and fine furniture.
