About the piece
Painted in 1666 by Caspar Netscher, this exquisite oil painting is a prime example of the Dutch 'fijnschilder' style. It features a young woman in luxurious satin feeding a grey parrot, a composition enriched by the detailed textures of an ornate birdcage and a draped Oriental carpet, framed by a classic stone arch.
