A small but very interesting composition of two figures in an interior, painted in oil onto board.

We have not been able to quite put a finger on what the two figures are doing – they look like they could be drying out something, given the firewood in the picture, or perhaps they are weaving with a loom in front of the seated figure. A large bag of logs sits to the right of the picture, a pair of barrels can be seen to the left, and wooden beams run across the roof. The picture has a lovely homely feel, with an earthy palette of browns and greens. There is an array of detail, which makes it very interesting puzzle to try and work out. If anyone has a clear idea of what the scene is of, we’d be very grateful if you could drop us a message letting us know what you think it is and why!

The painting is housed in a gilt frame which illuminates the picture wonderfully. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

Size: 28 x 53 cm (including frame)
