Visual Summary

Brief Description

Woman pours liquid for a seated couple at a table, a man stands in a dim room

Detailed Description

The painting depicts an interior scene with four figures in a dimly lit room. A tall, multi-paned window on the left allows light to enter, illuminating the figures and a portion of the room. In the foreground, to the left, a woman stands in profile, facing right. She wears a red bodice with white trim, a dark blue skirt, and a white apron, and holds a silver pitcher, pouring liquid into a glass on a dark, patterned table. At the center, a man and a woman are seated at this table. The seated man, seen from behind, wears a dark jacket with a white collar and light-colored, patterned breeches. He holds a glass or bottle. The seated woman, facing left, wears a light-colored dress and a white head covering, looking towards the man. Behind the table, a fourth man stands, wearing a dark, wide-brimmed hat and a white shirt, looking towards the seated couple. The background wall is a muted gray-green. A large, dark rectangular object hangs on the wall behind the standing man. To the right, a dark framed painting of a figure, possibly a woman, hangs on the wall. Further right, a tall, dark wooden structure with vertical slats stands against the wall. The floor is a light brown, and a dark object, possibly a hat, rests on the floor in the lower right corner. The ceiling is dark with visible wooden beams.
