A beautiful, evocative 19th century oil painting on canvas of a woman peeling pears in a kitchen setting. The dark mood with hints of light through the apron and burgundy hues of the dress is mesmerising. You can feel the moment and time. The canvas is slightly bent in a few places but this does not detract from the beauty. It has a beautiful sheen and crackled feel. It is stretched canvas on an old wood frame and also has a lovely gilt frame (early 20th century) which is slightly timeworn in places It is not signed.
