His specialty was the very lifelike depiction of tableware of all kinds and other accessories.  Rural interior scenes, peasants playing cards, drinking, eating and smoking, are Jan&#8217;s favourite subjects.  His interiors are rustic and populated with figures dressed in eighteenth-century fashion.  The detailed attention he gives to the accessories and settings sometimes distracts from the scene he is painting.  It is this fondness that earned him the nickname &#8220;Potteke Verhaghen&#8221; (little pot Verhaghen).<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jan Verhaghen The Woman Drinking eighteenth century oil on canvas, 40 x 31.5 cm M Leuven The Warm Hand eighteenth century oil on canvas, 97.5 x 121 cm&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30,27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-47551","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-artists","category-uncategorized-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47551","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47551"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47551\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47551"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47551"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.museum-aarschot.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47551"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
