Description from the seller
French School of the 19th Century – The Sewing Lesson – Mother and Daughter
Charming genre scene depicting a mother introducing a young girl to sewing work. In the warm intimacy of a room with a fireplace, the two figures are gathered around thread and fabric, in a moment of complicity and transmission.
The softness of their expressions, the richness of the fabrics, and the harmony of warm tones confer on this composition a particularly delicate charm, characteristic of everyday life scenes appreciated in the 19th century.
A beautiful antique work, decorative and full of sensitivity.
Oil on canvas, exceptional quality: 67x52cm.
The work is in very good condition, oil on canvas re-stretched, some signs of wear/cracking to be noted nonetheless.
Certificate of authenticity will be issued to the buyer.
Easy delivery to China and Taiwan with minimal customs fees or none. We have an office in Shanghai.
*Images shown in interiors are provided for illustration purposes. The apparent dimensions and proportions of the work may differ from its actual size.
