About this work

This painting shows a dark wooden cabinet with two glass doors. Inside, you can see shelves with a few small items—maybe plates or jars. The wood looks worn, with a reddish-brown color. Above the doors, there’s a shelf with a couple of objects, including what appears to be a white hat or cloth. The cabinet’s doors have painted designs inside, but they’re faded. The setting looks like a simple, old room with rough walls and a wooden floor. If you like this kind of quiet, everyday scene, check out the Museum of Ethnography for more.
