Description from the seller
Humorfully genre scene was executed in second hlf of 19th century by listed Austrian genre painter Carl ( Cölestin) Schleicher (1825 - 1903).
Schleicher was born in Lemberg (now Lviv), but he acquired his education in the field of painting mainly in Vienna between the years 1860 and 1870. He was a student of the Austrian painter Ferdinand Georg Wldmueller.
