Frans Hals (1582/83 - 1666),

was a Dutch Golden Age painter, normally of portraits, who lived and worked in Haarlem. He is known for his loose painterly brushwork, and helping introduce a lively style of painting to Dutch art. He also painted large group portraits for local civic guards and for the regents of local hospitals. His pictures illustrate the various strata of society: banquets or meetings of officers, guildsmen, local councilmen from mayors to clerks, itinerant players and singers, gentlemen, fishwives, and tavern heroes. Frans influenced his brother Dirck Hals also painter. Additionally, five of his sons became painters: Harmen Hals, Frans Hals the Younger, Jan Hals,
Reynier Hals and Nicolaes Hals. The displayed painting is a crop from The Laughing Cavalier (1624).
