Abstract
The assumption is expressed that two very different, strongly mutually contrasting places are shown in ‘Servant pouring milk’, and this is the “hidden” dynamic of thought of this picture by a genius, which amazed, despite its formal complete unpretentiousness, many famous painters and unknown art-lovers.
