An interest in subjects from everyday life is typically Dutch. This goes also for miniatures. The figures in this group appear to be acting out an intimate domestic scene. A woman is walking to the table, which is already set for tea, while other figures wait to be served. The cat, too, approaches, in the hope of getting a few table scraps.
