About the piece

Attributed to the Dutch master Pieter de Hooch, this late 17th-century scene exemplifies the period's fascination with domestic life and light. The artist's extraordinary ability to capture the shimmer of satin gowns and the heavy drape of a Persian table rug creates a sense of tactile luxury and quiet drama.
