Stable Boy

Description

This evocative mid-20th century-style painting captures a stable boy tenderly feeding three horses, while his loyal but clearly disgruntled dog looks up at him with a touch of impatience. The scene is rendered in soft yet expressive brushstrokes, imbuing the moment with warmth and gentle movement. Rich in earthy tones and golden hues, the composition evokes a sense of nostalgia and pastoral calm.

The artist’s signature is visible at the bottom right, though the name remains partially unclear. The piece is housed in a wooden frame measuring 44x56 cm, which shows visible damage on two corners. The frame is held together by original nails, adding to its vintage authenticity.

This artwork would make a charming addition to any rustic or traditional interior, farmhouse-style home, or collection of 20th-century rural genre scenes.
