"La petite menagère" is a miniature painting by Cornelius Høyer from 1756 - 1804. The artwork depicts a young girl in a rural setting, possibly feeding chickens. The miniature's small size, measuring just 5.5 cm in height and 7.7 cm in width, adds to its intimate charm. It's currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcasing Høyer's skill in capturing everyday life in such a detailed and delicate manner. The painting offers a glimpse into 18th-century rural life and its simple pleasures.
