About the Artwork

That is wrong! To treat in such a way an honorable woman who waited on everyone for a trifle; she who was so industrious, so useful, to be so treated. It is really wrong!

 

¡Mal hecho! ¡A una muger de onor, que por una friolera servia a todo el mundo tan delijente, tan útil, tratarla así! ¡Mal hecho!
