A Sleeping Saleswoman
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil on wood painting by the Dutch Baroque artist Gabriel Metsu, created between 1644 and 1667. The image portrays a weary woman, dressed in the traditional attire of the seventeenth century, as she takes a moment of rest indoors. The scene is set in a humble interior, with a simple grill and various cooking utensils, such as knives and cutlery, suggesting that she may have been a cook or a saleswoman of cookware. Two cats, curled up at her feet, add a touch of warmth and companionship to the otherwise quiet and introspective scene. Their soft, velvety fur contrasts with the woman's rough, textured clothing and the wooden floor beneath her. The woman's expression is one of drowsiness and exhaustion, her eyes closed and her head tilted slightly to the side. Her posture is relaxed, with her body slumped slightly to the side, as if she is giving in to the irresistible pull of sleep. The painting's muted color palette and meticulous attention to detail are characteristic of the Baroque era, which is known for its ornate and intricate art. The use of oil paint allows for a rich, vibrant texture that brings the scene to life, from the woman's wrinkled clothing to the intricately patterned floor and the fur of the cats. This painting is a rare glimpse into the daily life of a woman in the Low Countries during the seventeenth century, offering a glimpse into the world of cookery and the quiet moments of rest and relaxation that were cherished amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Today, "A Sleeping Saleswoman" is a cherished piece of heritage art, on display at the Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Denmark) in Copenhagen, Denmark, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
