Description: Click an Image to See it Full-size Details Payment Shipping Terms of Sale View in Room Description A fine study after Thomas Gainsborough's original painting of two peasant children Hobbinol and Ganderetta. The original was one of Gainsborough's last exhibited pieces in his lifetime. In 1788, the year of the artist's death the painting was exhibited in "The Gallery of British Poets" and was of great interest as Gainsborough had largely stopped exhibiting in 1884. As it is one of his later pieces, this copy was most probably painted in the twelve years after the artist's death, making it more of a contemporary study. The artist for this piece has worked to convey the classic style of Gainsborough in the finer details of the painting. From the soft flourishes on the background foliage, the the stylised way that the artist captures the cat in the foreground, there is a determination to replicate Gainsborough's technique. Unsigned. Presented in an 18th century gilt frame. On canvas. Condition There has been some restoration and overpainting to certain areas of the composition, more notably to the faces of the children. There is some craquelure to the surface. There is wear to the frame giving it a slightly distressed look. You can view our full collection of these here.

Sulis Fine Art traces its origins back four generations. Benjamin Diamond opened a picture framing factory in Midtown Manhattan in the early 20th century. Originally known as Royal Art, the business worked closely with artists and museum institutions, developing a reputation for creating fine frames. Royal Art passed through the family and eventually evolved into Sulis, now run by Benjamin's grandson Bill, and his son Dan. Based in the South West of England, we source art from across the British Isles and ship worldwide. We handpick all our stock and we've grown into a ten-strong team of art historians, photographers, restorers, studio technicians and despatchers. We relocated to our Corsham studio in early 2020, leaving behind our small garden workshops in Bradford-on-Avon that had been our base for several successful years. Now located on the edge of the Cotswolds, our current home allows the team to work alongside our large catalogue of artworks, allowing us to provide you with fast global shipping and top-notch customer service. We are always striving to connect people with the art they love. Each week we add new artworks to our extensive catalogue, across all styles, subjects, colours and periods. At the heart of Sulis, we rescue and restore lost and forgotten works, giving you the opportunity to find unique pieces and discover art in a new and different way. View All Artworks View More -->
