A wonderful and joyful genre portrait, sometimes also called “The Boy in the Window”. It seems that it is made literally in one breath, in an easy sketchy manner.
Here, the artist is already perfectly coping with the creation of light-air effects, which gave him no rest even in “Eaters of melons and grapes.”
