About the Item
Jan Gillisz van Vliet (1605–1668) was a Dutch Golden Age artist and student of Rembrandt. He worked with Rembrandt between 1628 and 1637, inspired by his master's work. Like Rembrandt, van Vliet made a series of beggar figures, though often with a greater degree of satire and expressiveness. For example, this image of a rat catcher from 1632 is directly related to Rembrandt's "The rat-poison peddler" of the same year, though van Vliet has infused it with humor: the peddler is shown arguing with the rats who are supposedly eating poison at his tray.
