The Visit 1746

by Pietro Longhi

Here an elegant woman, accompanied by her family chaplain and possibly her husband, receives an escort who toys with her dog. The ring-biscuit may well carry erotic overtones. The decoration of the drawing room is typically Venetian. (Source: The Metropolitan Museum of Art)
