A seated woman looking at a child through a window | Jacobus Vrel | 1656 | Fondation Custodia, Paris
“The subject of this work is unique in 17th-century Dutch painting. No one else has ever depicted a woman tipping her chair forward yo look through a window. The woman makes contact with a girl on the other side of the glass. This is not an exterior window, but a window into another room - not unusual in 17th-century houses. Vrel struggled with the chair: he adjusted the length and exact position of the chair legs while he was painting it. He also had trouble with the perspective of the corners of the room. It is small details, such as the child behind the glass or the nail and its shadow on the white plastered wall, that make this a joy to look at. The way Vrel signed the work is also delightful - on a strip of paper lying seemingly unnoticed on the floor. It is a device he used often.
The well-known collector Frits Lugt (1884 - 1970), who had a penchant of the work of little-known artists, bought this painting in 1918. He then lent it for two years to the Mauritshuis, which doesn't have a work by Veel in its collection.”

Este cuadro es mucho más bonito cuando lo ves sólo.
Y si, es posible hacerlo entre oleadas de visitantes y grupos guiados.
Está en el Mauritshuis.

Still Life with Cheeses, Almonds and Pretzels | Clara Peeters | 1615 | Mauritshuis, The Hague
“In this still-life, a table is laid with cheeses, pretzels and figs, alongside costly objects like a gilded Venetian glass and a Chinese dish. The Antwerp painter Clara Peeters was one of the first food still-life painters, and her ‘banketjes’ or banquet pieces had a great influence on the painters of the Northern Netherlands. Besides putting her signature on the silver bridal knife, Peeters also painted herself. In the pewter lid of the earthenware jug, you can see the reflection of a woman’s face with a white cap. This is Clara’s self-portrait.”
