About this work

A woman in a long blue dress stands by an open window, looking out at another room. The walls are dark wood, and shelves hold stacks of blue-and-white plates and bowls. Sunlight streams through the window, lighting up the room’s stone floor. The plates have a simple design, mostly blue patterns on white. The woman seems lost in thought, her back to the room full of dishes. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
