Figure 7.--This American primitive may have been done in the 1830s, although that is just a guess. I doubt if it was done much later in the 19th century. We do not know who the artist was. The boy has short hair wears a front buttoning black tunic with plain white panatalettes. |
This American primitive may have been done in the 1830s, although that is just a guess. I doubt if it was done much later in the 19th century. We do not know who the artist was. The boy has short hair wears a front buttoning black tunic with plain white panatalettes. The gender in many of these priutive paintings is difficult to determine, but this boy is definitely a boy. The dog is further confirmation.
