The women seen in profile in the painting worked for Vuillard’s mother in her corset and dress-making business. For a few years in the early 1890s Vuillard’s paintings became so highly patterned that they verged on abstraction. It is likely that his day-to-day contact with patterned materials through his mother’s work influenced his very intricate, decorative style of painting.
