About the piece
Jacob Ochtervelt's 1674 painting captures a quiet moment of domestic intimacy within a wealthy Dutch household. The composition is defined by the luminous treatment of the mother’s satin skirt and the soft, focused light illuminating the nurse and infant against the deep, shadowed tones of a classic 17th-century interior.
