The artist likes genre scenes representing the people. Here he focuses the viewer's attention on the two women by placing them in the centre of the scene.
By playing with the contrasts of the clothes and the light and shade, Van Geluwe gives the genre scene its rightful place.
The painting is also larger than the usual paintings for this genre.
