拍品專文

A servant, situated in the kitchen, is depicted gazing at herself in a large mirror whilst wearing elaborate clothes and flourishing a fan, presumably belonging to her mistress, over her own cap and petticoat. Three amused female spectators are looking in behind the kitchen door, whilst a cat is happily eating a fish from a broken plate on the ground. Similar etchings which are clearly derived from the present work are in the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco, the Lewis Walpole Library, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, USA, and the British Museum, London.
