The Way You Hear It, Is the Way You Sing It
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Jan Havicksz. Steen, created around 1665. The artwork, measuring 134x163 cm, can be found in the prestigious Mauritshuis museum in The Hague, Netherlands. This lively scene depicts a domestic setting during the Dutch Golden Age. A group of characters is gathered in an untidy room filled with smoke and merry-making. In the center of attention is a man playing a pipe while singing passionately. Surrounding him are individuals engaged in various activities - some drinking wine, others engaging in conversation or simply enjoying the music. The painting carries a moral message that resonates even today: "As the old sing, so pipe the young". It serves as a reminder that adults must set good examples for younger generations to follow; otherwise, bad behavior may ensue. Steen's mastery lies not only in his ability to capture realistic details but also his skillful portrayal of human emotions and interactions within this informal household scene. Through his brushstrokes and use of light and color, he brings life to each character and creates an atmosphere brimming with energy. "The Way You Hear It, Is the Way You Sing It" offers viewers an intriguing glimpse into seventeenth-century Holland's bourgeois culture while highlighting universal themes of music's power to unite people and influence behavior.
