"Twee dienstmeisjes trekken de dekens weg van een half ontklede vrouw in een bed" (Two maids pull the covers off a half-naked woman in bed) is an etching by Nicolas Ponce, a French artist who lived between 1746 and 1831. This work, dating from 1756 to 1831, is a depiction of a playful and suggestive scene, highlighting the light-heartedness and social commentary characteristic of Rococo art. It's a beautiful example of the era's signature use of elaborate, ornate detail, and the delicate lines of the etching add to its charm. This piece, housed in the Rijksmuseum, measures 267 mm in height and 320 mm in width.
