Painting # 42

The Proposition by Judith Leyster 

Another one of the few great woman painters Judith Leyster was a Dutch painter.

The above oil painting was done in 1631 making it almost 386 years old...

Like Norman Rockwell she too painted scenes of everyday people doing routine things.

Worth noticing the details on the foot warmer kept on the floor. Few specks of cadmium orange and yellow seem to give the effect of heat in a dark background. But how easy to miss it too. :)
