Bramine Hubrecht made this watercolor, Handwerkende vrouw bij een serredeur, sometime between 1870 and 1913. You can see Hubrecht’s process in the thin washes of color, especially around the edges. It’s all about the push and pull of the brush, isn't it? There's an open window, maybe a greenhouse, and someone inside is bent over, working. What is she doing? It's kind of hard to tell, right? The window frame is dark and solid, grounding the whole image, but the figure and the interior space are hazy. I wonder, is this a literal scene, or is it more about a mood, a feeling? Look at the way the light seems to blur the edges of everything. It reminds me a little of the way Corot used to paint. It’s like she's not trying to nail down any one meaning, but instead, inviting us to just get lost in the mystery of the moment.
