VINTAGE EUROPEAN BOY WITH APPLE BASKET OIL ON CANVAS PAINTING, 20TH CENTURY
Description
Early 1900s European Portrait – Boy with Red Hat & Apples, Unsigned, Original Frame.
A delightful early 20th-century European portrait of a young boy with a cheerful expression, dressed in a white top, black tie, and red hat. He’s shown holding a basket of red apples set atop a table—an endearing and classic scene that feels both sweet and nostalgic.
The artwork is in very good vintage condition, with only light superficial scratches to the frame. The backing is rustic and worn, but this in no way affects the display or overall charm of the piece. A lovely, pre-loved painting full of character and warmth.
Very Good Condition - the artwork is well-preserved, and the frame is sturdy with no visible wear or damage. The back of the painting is rustic and open (see images), but this does not affect the integrity or aesthetic of the piece when displayed.
Measures 12"W x 15"H
