"A kitchen scene. A handsome young cook in her mistress's hat and gown, worn over her own cap and petticoat, with her breast bared, postures in the kitchen before a hanging mirror, holding out a fan. Three amused girls (a woman with two young girls) watch her from behind a door (right). On the floor is a broken dish with a fish on which a cat has pounced, and to the right a rolling pin, fork and spoon. A floured pudding is ready for cooking. On the shelves behind her are plates, platters and mugs; above the door, a small keg, wine bottle, and crocks. On the floor near the door are brooms and buckets
