Willem van Mieris employed the refined, enamel-like painting technique associated with the artists of Leiden, achieving a surface that shows no obvious traces of the brush. His father, Frans van Mieris, was also a leading practitioner of this manner. Whereas Frans’s subjects were often satirical, Willem responded to the fashion for more dignified, classicizing subjects that emerged in the last decades of the 17th century. In this traditional domestic interior, Willem treated the middle-class mother and her children as rather elegant, generalized types. Paintings by the Van Mieris family and other examples of Leiden “fine painting” were much sought after by 18th century collectors.
