Quiet Street Antiques of Bath has dated this piece to the 1800s.
Behind is another large canvas and a table is laid with decanters and glasses. There is a large statue in the background; a lute to one side and a gilt-tooled folio in the lower right corner, where the full signature can be found.
This is a delightful painting and may possibly be a self-portrait of the artist himself? 25ins x 21ins (63.5 x 53cms) including the original frame. *Casimir van den Daele, a Belgian genre painter was born in 1818 and died in 1880
