The Amsterdam Notebooks—Page 23.

It's Day 19 of this 35 day project. (The set thus far.) Inside the Rijksmuseum, I draw details from two paintings by Vermeer.

My dad had a reproduction of the Milkmaid hanging on an obscure wall in my house all through my childhood and I always, always hated it. I like your version much better.
