Interior of a studio is a 1893 oil by Alfred Verhaeren, a Impressionism work, held at Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
The painting depicts a dimly lit room with a man sitting at a desk, surrounded by paintings on the walls. The man is dressed in dark attire and appears to be engrossed in reading a book. The room is filled with various objects, including a vase with flowers, a clock, and a few chairs. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation, with the man lost in thought as he reads. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene. For more information on the artist's use of chiaroscuro, look up the technique.
