Mujeres cosiendo

Édouard Vuillard, hacia 1912

This painting shows two women seated on yellow-gold chairs in a room. The woman on the left appears young, with short brown hair and light skin. She is wearing a dark blue shirt and a red skirt, and she sits facing the right with a bundle of white fabric in her lap. The woman on the right is an older, with light skin, gray hair pulled back into a bun, glasses, a dark top, and a long skirt with a checkered pattern. She faces the left and looks closely at her hands, which are close together, perhaps holding something indistinct. The two women are both surrounded by bundles of fabric. The room includes white and yellow striped wallpaper, draped fabrics, and upholstered furniture. On the left is a vertical red structure, perhaps an open door or the edge of a canopy bed. The floor beneath the women is white with visible wood grain, and the ceiling is light gray.
