Woman Peeling an Apple
A maidservant leans casually against a door jamb while peeling an apple, apparently taking a break from her work. Bisschop situated her in the entrance hall, on the threshold between inside and outside. Our eye is led into the interior through the maid’s sunlit face and the light door jamb. The birds form a subtle detail: those outdoors move around freely, while the one indoors is kept in a cage.
