About this work

Next to a window with broken panes sits a painter with holes in his clothes before an easel, a painter's palette in his hands. Behind him his wife is busy grinding paint. In front of her stand two children. To the right a man busy stuffing a pipe. In front of him on the table a jug and playing cards. Paintings and prints with texts in French are scattered throughout the room.
