Español: Mujer hilando

Una mujer con un sombrero ancho y plumoso y un vestido rosa y blanco está sentada hilando con un huso, con la mirada baja hacia su trabajo. A la derecha se alza un candelabro junto a una pared de ladrillo, y una cabeza de perro descansa cerca de su regazo en este grabado en madera coloreado a mano con sombreado de líneas delicadas.
