The most significant Dutch portrait painter here shows the well-known subject of the connection of wine and music. Daring brushstrokes that remain completely visible bring a direct appeal to the two pendants that fits in well with the merry expression of the boys. The paintings were not intended to be portraits but rather show anonymous genre figures.
