    I get that she tucked up her overskirt in the back to keep it from getting dirty…but then, if you’re going to be doing dirty work, why put it on?

    After years managing unruly kitchen items, Ginny had developed the perfect reprobating look to scold any cheeky pot calling the kettles black.

    https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Charles_Joseph_Grips_-_Ik_ben_zoo_klaar_met_schuren,_1866.jpg 

    (best viewed by Google Chrome, which can automatically translate most pages as necessary) has info and links that point to info about this roughly A4 paper size painting.

     

    https://www.simonis-buunk.com/art/grips-c-j/18177/ 

    https://www.erfgoedkloosterleven.nl/zoeken/collecties-zoeken.php?mivast=1212&mizig=214&miadt=1212&milang=nl&mizk_alle=C.J.%20Grips%20Henricus&mibj=1870&miej=1870&miview=ldt 

    both have Spanish info about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s indirectly pointed to by the title URL: 

    https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carel_Jozeph_Grips 

    https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Charles_Joseph_Grips 

    (again Chrome can automatically translate as necessary). So far, 2 works by him have been used here. 

    https://www.gocomics.com/that-is-priceless/2018/05/9?comments=visible 

    has the prior (my comment there included the Dutch artist info URL included here; its other has disappeared in the interim).
