The artist has used a post-impressionistic technique and soft pastel colors in his palette to create a lovely subdued effect. Note the incredible mastery of light and shadow with the morning sun beaming through the window draped with a delicate lace. The owner's collection of everyday items, rustic furniture, and family keepakes creates a home-like warmth that is a snapshot in time. One can almost smell the coffee! It's a snapshot of a morning ritual that survives the ages. Mounted in its original intricately detailed frame lavished with foliates and shells, with gold finish that subtly accents the earth tones of the work.
