CHINOISERY WITH MUSICING
oil on canvas.
204 x 142 cm.

In front of a beige background two narrow trees with a sun sail attached to their tips are framed by a sitting woman playing a musical instrument and a small boy in a blue and white robe with two mallets in his hands playing an instrument in front of him. A Chinese man in a pointed bamboo hat dances to this music. Chinoiserie typical for the artist. Continuous crack, craquelé, chipped paint at the upper and lower edges. (1211184) (3) (18)
