About the Item

This charming pastoral scene by the artist Martin Ränike (b. 1863) portrays a young lady poised with a scythe, ready to work the field. Her strong stance and composed expression convey a quiet dignity, skilfully rendered through the artist’s soft yet deliberate brushstrokes. Ränike masterfully captures the tranquillity of the moment - from the golden morning light to the gently rolling hills in the distance - as the subject prepares to start her day. Signed. Original gallery label dated '1907' verso. Beautifully presented in a substantial gilt frame. On canvas on stretchers.
