Original artwork description:

Les couseurs is a work from the Scènes de Genre series.
Playing with the spectator who thinks he sees two sailors mending their net, Nicolas Maureau here transposes a typically feminine activity to the masculine; sewing. Among many paintings inspired by this profession, we can think of the sewers of Jean-François Millet or Auguste Renoir.
