Old Woman making Pancakes — Adriaan de Lelie

Adriaan de Lelie. Painted c. 1790 - c. 1810.

As in the painting Morning Visit, in this kitchen, too, an old man is preparing to smoke his pipe. A young woman has just entered and a boy stands in the door opening, both perhaps enticed by the smell of pancakes. Because of the young woman’s attire, this interior makes a more contemporary impression than Morning Visit.
