Interior with Painter, Woman Reading and Maid Sweeping (1668). Pieter Janssens Elinga (Dutch, 1623-1682). Oil on canvas. Städelsche Kunstinstitut und Städtische Galerie.Janssens Elinga was active as a painter of both interior genre scenes with perspective effects and still lifes. The former are clearly influenced by the art of Pieter de Hooch and in the eighteenth and nineteen centuries were often misattributed to him. However, there is no evidence to suggest that Janssens Elinga or any other artist was de Hooch’s pupil. -- source link
