I went to the RIJKSMUSEUM in Amsterdam recently and this painting will not get out of my mind. It is saddening and beautiful. From what i remember in the description of it, these are the sisters of the painter, and their mother was struggling with depression at the time.

Was there any extra context as to why was the mother depressed? I am curious
