- Abstract:
- A very pregnant sits slouched in a chair, her left arm around a distaff and a spindle in her right hand. Above her is a picture of a young girl looking down at the broken pitcher at her feet. To the right an old woman in a shawl and wearing spectacles holds a letter in her hand, as she leans towards the younger woman with an expression of concern. Between them stands a young man who stands mostly with his back to the viewer but is slightly turned to the younger woman as he subtly points to the painting over her head
