Müllerinn (Miller)

Friedrich August Brand and Catherine Brandinn, after Johann Christian Brand

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a woman seated, capturing her upper body down to her waist. She is positioned centrally, facing slightly to her right with a calm expression. The woman has light-colored hair mostly concealed under a cap. She wears a gown with a fitted bodice and long sleeves, the fabric appearing textured and layered. Two large wooden tubs with lids are around her, and next to her, on the ground, rests a wooden stool. The background features a textured surface with an overhead canopy made from planks supported by upright poles.
