Interior with seated woman and a boy

The painting shows a dim interior with a woman seated and holding a child at the lower center of the composition, set against dark walls and furniture that recede into shadow. A row of tall, narrow windows on the left allows warm light to enter, casting vertical bands of illumination and creating a strong contrast with the darker interior. The color palette is restrained, with deep browns, blacks, and ochers, accented by pale skin tones and white textiles, and the scene is rendered with a smooth, quiet realism typical of Jacob Vrel’s interior genre works.
