About the Item
This evocative oil study by Charles Sprague Pearce captures a rare moment of stillness in the lives of two working women. Seated along a golden riverbank, their figures are bathed in warm light, with soft grasses and wildflowers surrounding them. One woman gestures gently toward the other, suggesting a conversation or moment of comfort. The rake and basket nearby speak to the labor that preceded this pause, anchoring the scene in the rhythm of rural life. Pearce, known for his deeply human portrayals of peasant figures, imbues this study with tenderness and quiet dignity. The composition’s intimacy, paired with its painterly handling of landscape and light, offers a compelling glimpse into both the beauty and endurance of everyday existence. This painting comes with frame and is in excellent condition!
