Margaretha, I wonder what the little girl has done to be punished? It looks as if she has been sent to sit in the corner, behind the flowers! Or perhaps I am imagining an air of sadness? Maureen
Interesting how differently we see things. Maybe the picture looks a bit sad, but there are two more cups on the table and there is some kind of buns or pastries, so I don't think she is punished. But at that time kids were only supposed to be seen, not heard, so she might be bored. Margaretha
