Antique Oil Painting.
Boy doing his shoelaces for the first time. Florence W. Whitfield 1879 – 1925:
Florence Westwood Whitfield is one of the few famous female artists among the British artists. The only other piece of her art I have come across is the one in Birmingham Museum titled “Christmas Roses”.
This is a beautiful painting of a boy trying to lace his shoe for the first time.
Craquelure is seen throughout the canvas and especially at the bottom right where it must have been hung closest to the fireplace. Some chippings have come off of the frame as you can see from the pictures. It is a delightful picture altogether.
