The Three Girls: daily intimacy captured by Adriaen van Ostade
This genre scene depicts three young women in a warm interior, the oldest focused on her lace, while the subdued light shapes their faces and fabrics. The earthy palette and subtle glazes evoke the technical mastery of 17th-century Dutch painting, where each brushstroke emphasizes the texture of the fabrics and the tranquility of the hearth. The composition, tight and rich in workshop details, creates an atmosphere that is both peaceful and lively, where the artisanal gesture becomes a central motif. It is an intimate and sensitive portrayal of daily life, rendered with great finesse of observation.

Adriaen van Ostade, master of Dutch genre painting
Adriaen van Ostade belongs to the Dutch Golden Age of painting, renowned for his tavern and interior scenes populated with popular characters. Influenced by Frans Hals and the Caravaggesque tradition of chiaroscuro, he mastered translating everyday life into compositions filled with humor and social truth. His major works helped define genre painting as a mirror of society, emphasizing authenticity in gestures and expressions. In The Three Girls, the oldest doing lace, we find this attention to detail and pictorial narration, characteristic of his work.
