About the Item

Painted in France circa 1830, this charming early 19th-century oil on canvas captures two barefoot young women crossing a shallow stream in the countryside. The finely rendered figures, dressed in traditional peasant attire with aprons and headscarves, are depicted with graceful movement and tender expression, evoking the quiet poetry of rural life. Set in its original carved and gilt wood frame, the piece displays delicate floral ornamentation and retains its authentic gold leaf finish with a soft, aged patina. The pastoral background, painted in gentle earth tones and soft greens, provides depth and atmosphere that highlight the figures’ warm humanity. This elegant composition is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with minor craquelure attesting to its early 19th-century origin. A beautifully preserved example of French Romantic genre painting. Measures: 21" W x 24" H.
