Depicts detail of Pál Szinyei Merse's painting "Clothes Drying" (1869), the engraver's initials (CSR) in the upper left corner, and the signature of the painter on the right.

Similar to many of his other creations, Szinyei crafted this painting while in Munich, yet it lacks the conventional spirit of the Academy prevalent in that locale. Instead, it emerges as a vibrant sketch inspired by a Hungarian setting, capturing maids tending to laundry in a sunlit garden, observed by the "young master" (also exhibited under the title "Young Master"). Much like his earlier work "The Swing", Szinyei's primary focus lay in translating light into color, disregarding academic norms to depict his visual encounters in a carefree composition. Despite his unfamiliarity with the French artists' similar pursuits and never having visited Paris, Szinyei managed to grasp the essence of Impressionism. His exposure to realist paintings by Gustave Courbet and some early works by Edouard Manet at the International Exhibition in Munich shaped his artistic perspective, coinciding with Claude Monet's debut of his first Impressionist piece in Grenoble that same year.
