| Description |  |
In this tidy home a woman gives food to a boy who says grace, probably before departing for the school visible through the open door. The warm red tones, geometric forms, and light falling through clearly defined spaces are all typical of the artist's style. The orderly interior may express an ethical as well as a visual preference: dutiful and pious human behavior is reflected in the harmonious condition of the household itself.
