About the Item

The composition juxtaposes the subject's rigid pose and ornate clothing against the soft, golden light of the rural background, creating an intriguing contrast between youthful play and aristocratic formality. Unsigned. Beautifully presented in a swept gilt frame with floral and foliate detail. On canvas.
