Cabinet d'un Peintre is a 1771 ink by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting shows a room with a woman and children. The woman stands behind a chair, wearing a dress and a head covering. She looks at the children, who sit around a table. They are all dressed in old-fashioned clothes. The room has many pictures on the walls. The room looks like a place where people work on art. There are many things around that suggest this, like the pictures and the table with papers on it. The people in the room seem to be doing something together, but it's not clear what. If you want to learn more about the style of this painting, look into Romanticism.
Daniel Niklaus Chodowiecki (16 October 1726 – 7 February 1801) was a German painter and printmaker of Huguenot and Polish ancestry, who is most famous as an etcher.
