About the painting
This painting appears to show the interior of a French bedchamber at the end of the 17th century. The identification of the painting remains however unclear as this type of furniture was widespread in Europe. The sentiment of narrative innuendo comes from the confusion which reigns in the scene from knocked over pieces of furniture to the abandoned slippers carried away by a little dog.
