"The Studious Or Pensive Child Oil On Canvas Late 19th Century"
Observe without disturbing him...Amazing study scene, even daydreaming. The young boy seems to be suffering from writer's block; here it looks more like a blank slate. From a modest environment, he nevertheless has a few books and his study desk. With a Catholic upbringing, he may be thinking of the recently deceased person whose framed portrait is near the crucifix. He has been prostrate for a while; the strap has fallen on his arm without bothering him. With a beautiful outdoor light flooding his room. A pretty scene, anonymous like a snapshot from today. Undated painting but with the atmosphere of the late 19th century.
