About the Item

The term “Biedermeier” was first wielded as mildly disparaging designation for the bourgeois domesticity, so idealized by German society in the post-Napoleonic era prior to the 1848 revolutions. Though this painting is likely of French ancestry, it can certainly be said to share the affectations of old Papa Biedermeier, the style’s namesake. This particularly family unit, oil on canvas, consists of a young mother and two quintessentially 1830-ish-looking kids. The frame may be original to the painting, judging from its style.
