Room & Narrative

The Doctor's Visit by Gabriel Metsu

In this 17th century painting, we have a young girl sitting on a chair looking ill, and an older, well dressed, middle age man examining what looks like the girl's urine in a flask. This is the artist's humorous depiction on the subject of Love. The ill looking girl on the chair is actually lovesick.

From this painting I derived the following Narrative.

"Rooms To Eat Chocolate For A Young Girl In Love".
