About this work

The painting shows three women seated at a table. They were in charge of a hospital that took care of people with different ailments. The women's identities are known from the family arms on the chimneypiece. The painting is similar to works by artists who used chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts of light and dark to create a sense of depth.
