Artist: Myles Birket Foster
Date: c. 1888
Nationality: British
Pillow: bolster, on lacemaker's lap. Her feet are on the ground.
Bobbins: stick-like with rounded ends, not many
Comments: The lacemaker is sitting outside, where the light is better. There are pieces of cloth on her pillow, to protect the pillow and the lace.
