Three textile craftsmen and their wives is a 1830 paint by Unknown, a Biedermeier work, depicting ethnology, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows four people in a cozy room. Three men sit at a table covered with thread and cloth. One woman holds a baby while another stands behind the men. The men are making cloth while the women watch. Someone probably added a small dog later. The room feels warm and a little crowded. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more art like this.
