A Banquet 1628 Dirck Hals Dutch Frans Hals's younger brother Dirck probably studied with him and perhaps with the Rotterdam genre painter Willem Buytewech (1591/92-1624), who worked in Haarlem about 1612-17. Like Buytewech, Dirck was a specialist in depicting small figures, often with close attention to fashionable costume details. His colorful and painterly technique owed a great deal to his more gifted older brother, whose style and subjects are studied in the Museum's current exhibition, "Frans Hals in the Metropolitan Museum" (July 26-October 10, 2011).
