About this work

A young married couple in a canopy bed. The woman in négligé with bare breasts and a nightcap on her head wishes to rise; her young husband, also wearing a nightcap, embraces her. An older lady sits before the bed, a maid stands ready with garments in hand. Paintings hang on the wall of the room. The scene is framed by a border of flower garlands.
