In
The Singer, a version of this composition in the National Gallery of Scotland, the girl holds a book of music and the young officer is clearly more interested in securing her affections than her admonishment.
The 'title that does not fit the picture' was given by Goethe in his "Die Wahlverwandtschaften". The biographer of Terborch interprets this picture as a brothel scene, assuming that the seated officer holds up a coin which he offers to the girl.
The coin was missing in the engraving that Goethe knew.
There is a
third version, with an open door in the background, in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
