DESCRIPTION
"Genre Scene." France, ca.1800
In carved wood.
Measurements: 58 x 28 x 18 cm.
Wood carving of popular character that represents a scene of daily life, starring two figures with household utensils. The composition, of great narrative naturalness, captures a simple moment, reflection of the rural customs of the time.
The execution responds to a handcrafted environment far from the great academic centers, where the expressiveness and clarity of the scene prevail over the meticulous detail.
These types of pieces are of special interest for their ethnographic and aesthetic value, as they document aspects of daily life through a direct and authentic language.
