- The dignity of the farmer's wife -
Equipped with a stool and milk churn, the farmer's wife goes about her daily milking of the cows. The typical earth tones of Royal Copenhagen's underglaze painting emphasize the rusticity of the scene. The farmer's wife, like Constantin Meunier's peasants, is not weighed down by the burden of daily work, but radiates a dignity that is reflected in the glamorous appearance of the porcelain.
The gap in the outer garment above the apron, which allows the fabric underneath to show through, is an artistic idea that further enlivens the figure.
