The young woman is slumped on a stool, head in hand, taking a snooze after the hard work involved in preparing a large meal; heavy pots and pans litter the floor. But the mistress doesn‘t appear to be condemning her for a mortal sin – she shrugs her shoulders with a smile that seems to say, ’what am I to do with her?‘\n\nNicolaes Maes was for a while a student of Rembrandt. Here he has used his master’s technique of chiaroscuro (’light dark', contrasting use of light and shade to create a dramatic effect) to pick out the important points in the story. The contrasts and rich colours lend atmosphere and demonstrate Maes’s considerable skills in portraying texture, mood and character – seventeenth-century Dutch genre painting at its finest.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/nicolaes-maes-the-idle-servant\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London -
