About this work
An old woman kneels beside a red pan, stirring batter while a younger woman holding a child reaches toward her from a dim interior. A boy in a dark hat and coat eats from a pancake beside a small stove with a fire glowing beneath it. This painting by Gabriel Metsu is dated 1653 and is held by the Gustaf Adolf Sparre collection.
