A young woman sits in front of a table with lace work. She looks up as if she has been disturbed in her work by the viewer. In front of her is a sheet of music with a song she sings for her entertainment while working. The painting is a variant of a painting by Michael Wenzel Halbax in the Kolowrat collection in the Rychnov nad Kněžnou chateau. Oil on canvas, 97 x 69 cm
Provenance : Comes from the Bute family from Cardiff Castle, who sold it at auction in the late 19th century through the Agnew and Son auction house
