Get Bent / assigned, not invented at random

Historical

Snuffelaar

Sniffer / prowler

The veldpaap has named you Snuffelaar (Sniffer / prowler).

You must accept the name.

Why this name

Your answers leaned craft over spectacle: sniffing subjects other painters skip. Snuffelaar (Sniffer / prowler) is the prowling alias tied to that habit. The Bent named work the room could smell. Your craft and body put street craft first.

The historical echo

Snuffelaar / Snuffelaer appears as an alternate bentnaam associated with Pieter van Laer in Pack 1 lists (alongside Il Bamboccio). A separate Snuffelaer is also recorded for Otto Marseus van Schrieck; this quiz result follows the van Laer / Bamboccio-type association.

Snuffelaar spellings and bearer attribution vary across Houbraken, Hoogewerff, and Wiki tables; Pack 1 ties the alternate to van Laer.
