Author Description

Excerpt from Catalogue de la Collection de Tableaux Modernes de Monsieur "P***," Amateur, A la Haye Dans son costume simple, coiffée d'un bonnet en dentelles, elle représente un type gracieux de ce modeste peuple des travailleurs de la mer. Les bras nus croisés sur son panier, elle se laisse aller à observer attentivement deux papillons voletant dans la verdure. Les rayons de soleil d'un beau jour d'été, percent à travers le feuillage vert-clair des arbres, en jetant par-ci et par-là quelques notes lumineuses, et sur la terre, et sur la figure.
