About the Item

Oil painting of a Whitsuntide fair after Munnings English, early 20th Century Frame: Height 78cm, width 96cm, depth 5.5cm Canvas: Height 50cm, width 70cm, depth 2cm This fine oil painting is after the original by Sir Alfred Munnings, which is entitled ‘A Gala Day – Whitsuntide’ and was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1903. The painting depicts an early summer fair: tents line the background and people litter the middle- and foregrounds. In the immediate foreground, an apple seller vends his fruit, trying to interest three onlookers, while two children—apples in hand—gaze into the artist’s (and our) eyes. The painterly manner of the present work follows Munnings’ original: the style is fluid and accomplished, indicating the quality of the present copy. The painting is signed lower right ‘Reeves’ and is contained within a fine carved and gilt wooden frame.

19th Century Oil Painting of a Market Scene by H. C. Bryant
By Henry Charles Bryant
Located in London, GB
19th century oil painting of a market scene by H. C. Bryant English, 1877 Canvas: Height 51cm, width 76.5cm Frame: Height 68cm, width 93.5cm, depth 5cm Painted by the English artist Henry Charles Bryant, this lively scene is typical of Bryant’s oeuvre. Bryant specialised in market and farmyard scenes, inspired by 17th century Dutch genre painting which similarly depicted vignettes of everyday life. Bryant’s realistic painterly style also recalls these Dutch genre scenes, which in turn were inspired by the form and content of Early Netherlandish...

Located in London, GB
19th century Dutch oil painting of a musical scene Dutch, Late 19th Century Board: Height 28.5cm, width 24cm Frame: Height 46.5cm, width 42cm, depth 7cm This beautifully composed 19th-century oil painting offers an evocative glimpse into everyday domestic life, centring on a tender moment between a mother and her child. Set at the open window of a period townhouse, the woman gently cradles her toddler, who wears a traditional white cap and a 19th century toddler gown, clutching a small metal rattle. Dressed in refined mid-19th century fashion, the mother wears a vivid orange dress beneath a vibrant pelerine and a pink-ribboned lace cap—indicating her middle-class status and contemporary taste. Adding a charming narrative layer, she reaches down to touch the cap of a young street musician...
