Carpenter's Hut is a 1650 ink by Allart van Everdingen, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting shows a small, rustic hut nestled among trees and bushes. A few people are gathered outside, with one person sitting on a barrel and another standing nearby. The scene is set against a backdrop of rolling hills and a cloudy sky. In the foreground, a small stream runs through the landscape, adding to the sense of tranquility. The overall mood of the painting is one of peacefulness and simplicity. The artist's use of etching techniques creates a sense of texture and depth in the painting.
