MK "Sleepy Madeleine"

Compositional image "Sleepy Madeleine" The Venetian merchants, who brought coffee beans from Ethiopia to Europe in 1615, were the most kind and perspicacious. Life in Venice immediately seethed and attracted the attention of the whole world. Coffee tastings have become indispensable rituals of human communication. And in respected aristocratic families, a new position appeared in the kitchen, a person who knows how to brew coffee with high quality. Let's perform a one-figure composition, where the maid Madeleine, tired of the incessant preparation of coffee, fell asleep at work. The background will be Venetian cuisine of the 17th century ... The color spot of the emerald-blue tablecloth will highlight the prosperity of a wealthy Italian family. Canvas 60x50cm
