This well-executed Continental school oil depicts two children with a doll. The artist has captured this scene in a masterful hand, bringing attention to the the children's furrowed brows showing deep concentration as they try to mend their beloved toy. Fine details are added to their clothing, depicting an expert understanding of light and tone. The use of chiaroscuro shows real depth within the composition, defining the variety of textures found within the scene. Well presented in an ornate gilt composition frame with acanthus leaves. Unsigned. On canvas on stretchers.
