An interior scene depicting three women sharing beauty rituals, reminiscent of traditional harem or bathhouse paintings. Metzler composes the figures with vibrant brushstrokes, though the painting also possesses a strong drawing quality, as seen in the rendering of plants and details of the faces.
Using expressionistic brushstrokes and a broad, freely employed palette, the artist paints bustling everyday scenes interwoven with strange or unexpected details. Her confident, yet effortless technique blends humor with a sense of intimacy and harmony.
