"Zwei Frauen, beschäftigt mit Garnhaspeln und Flachshecheln" by Pieter Bartholomeusz. Barbiers, depicts two women engaged in domestic labor. The scene is set in a simple room illuminated by sunlight streaming through a window. One woman operates a spinning wheel, while another, kneeling on the floor, appears to be sorting flax. This genre painting, also known as "genre scene", illustrates the everyday activities of ordinary people during the 18th century and provides a glimpse into the lives of women and their domestic responsibilities. The artwork is currently housed in the Städel Museum.
