Altra Donzella — Another young woman — Grevembroch 3-113

This painting depicts a young woman, probably from the early 1700s, selling flowers on the streets.

She wears an unusual assortment of dresses, which might be handed-down or second-hand clothes, and the tall clogs often used by Venetian women, the calcagnette.
