DescriptionThis painting shows a woman in an interior. She is sitting beside a window with a small wooden device, like a small loom, resting on her lap. She is carefully making lace and is completely consumed by her work. She is wearing a type of white bonnet, a green dress with a white lace collar and a white apron. Behind her is an ornate drapery and there is a potted plant on the windowsill.
