Kinder Album created this unnamed painting, depicting a woman eating eggs, at an unknown date using unknown materials. The image immediately evokes the idea of domesticity, traditionally the realm of women, yet this is interrupted by the nude torso that dominates the scene. Paintings of nude women eating breakfast are not especially rare in the history of art, though they are often rendered from a male perspective. This painting was created in the 21st century, in a world that questions many of the established cultural norms of the past. The artist may be making a statement about the shifting roles of women in contemporary society. Perhaps the act of eating is a kind of consumption which has been traditionally denied to women. Such ideas can be researched by studying feminist theory.
