Oil on canvas titled “Father and Son”, by an unknown author, framed in the English customs style.
In this country-themed scene two male figures appear: a father and a son. They are playing golf, as we can see by the case of clubs that the young man is carrying on his back, as well as by the golf club that the father is carrying and on which he is leaning lightly.
They dress in a simple but elegant, sporty suit, a fashionable style in England at the beginning of the 20th century.
About customs in England:
English manners is an artistic and literary movement of the 19th and early 20th centuries that focuses on the detailed and realistic representation of the daily life and customs of English society. This movement is characterized by its close observation and often includes a touch of humor or social criticism.
In literature, authors such as Charles Dickens and William Makepeace Thackeray are known for their vivid s of life in Victorian England. In art, painters such as William Hogarth and George Cruikshank created works that reflected scenes of everyday life with a satirical approach.
English Costumbrismo not only documents the life of the time, but also offers a critical view of social structures and cultural norms, providing a window into 19th-century English society.
The frame that protects the work is offered as a gift, but has value in itself. It is provided at no additional cost so that when your artwork arrives at your home or destination it can be displayed immediately. Any damage to the frame itself, which does not affect the integrity of the artwork, cannot be accepted as a valid reason to open a claim or request a cancellation. less
