A masterwork Dutch Golden Age

The Family Concert

Jan Steen, 1626–1679, painted 1666

Held by The Art Institute of Chicago and released as Public domain (Art Institute of Chicago, CC0). It is here to paint after: give us your own line and the painters take its brushwork, its palette and its light, and none of its subject.

A print of the painting itself, up to 20 × 30 inches. Nothing larger, because it would arrive soft.

Painting after it
The painters take its handling, its surface and its light. Your line, or your photograph, stays the subject.
The credit
Every painting made after it carries “after Jan Steen (1626–1679), The Family Concert, The Art Institute of Chicago” on its plaque, and on the share page.
The licence
Public domain (Art Institute of Chicago, CC0), as the museum states it. The credit travels with it everywhere we show it, and it is never enlarged.
