HOOCH, Pieter de

(b. 1629, Rotterdam, d. 1684, Amsterdam)

Couple with Parrot 1668 Oil on canvas, 73 x 62 cm Wallraf-Richartz Museum, Cologne

Pieter de Hooch's painting belongs to the 'haute-bourgeois' genre. Through an anteroom we see a tidy living room with an elegantly clothed couple. The man is opening the cage with the parrot and the woman is enticing the bird out with a wine glass. These are clearly erotic symbols which indicate that the young woman is about to be seduced into an affair.
