The lighting and shadows in this are way inconsistent. Was the artist famous for this?

Multiple light sources though. The light from the window is providing beam light, but the rest of the light is being cast by various interior lights. I'm not sure they're perfect even with this consideration, but I don't think they're wildly off to the point of assuming a stylistic choice.

Where is the light from the windows coming from? It looks like it’s night time. Also, the people don’t have shadows.

The artist just didn't paint the exterior background for some reason, but you can clearly see the light from the window being cast on both the edge of the window frame and the main visible wall

Edit: okay so I see now the "night" in the title, but still there is clearly light being cast through the window; I guess we're going to have to assume a bright sign exists outside the window or something

The sharp outline of the light, along with the angle, make it look like it's being projected by the headlights of a passing car.

Good eyes. I completely agree with this take. Cheers 👍

Susan be a dear and pass me this weeks "For Men Only", and the bourbon. What? It's between my cigars and this month's fabricated outgoings.
