About this work

The painting depicts a woman milking a goat in a dimly lit room. The woman, dressed in a red shirt and green skirt, is kneeling on the floor, while the goat stands beside her. A young girl, wearing a dark dress, observes the scene from the right side of the room. The room is cluttered with various objects, including a large wooden barrel, a jug, and a basket. In the background, a doorway leads to another room, and a ladder leans against the wall. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet, everyday life. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artists who specialize in genre scenes, such as Jan Karel Verbrugge.
