About this work

This scene shows a small village courtyard with a wooden house and a stone archway. Inside the house, a woman in a green dress sits near a table, while outside, a child in red kneels by a well. The buildings look old and weathered, with thatched roofs and small windows. A tree grows near the arch, and the sky is pale blue. The year "1504" is carved into the well’s stone, but this painting isn’t from that time. The artist likely copied it from an older work. Check out chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create depth in paintings like this.
