Gabriël Metsu (Dutch: [ˈɣaːbriˌɛl ˈmɛtsy]; 1629–1667) was a Dutch painter of history paintings, still lifes, portraits, and genre works. He was "a highly eclectic artist, who did not adhere to a consistent style, technique, or one type of subject for long periods". Only 14 of his 133 works are dated.
