Oil on composition board, 89.5 x 89.5cm (image), 103.5 x 103.5cm (frame). Signed lower right 'Barton'. Craquelure, mainly across top half of painting. Hook on back but no hanging wire. The wooden frame approx. 3.5cm deep and with some minor wear. Total c.7kg in weight. A vibrant and expressively rendered depiction of two children playing in a field, with a pair of figures - presumably their parents - in the background. The composition is saturated in yellow-ochre hues, with impressionistic use of brushstrokes to capture the forms in soft focus. The artist worthy of further research. Available for local pickup, otherwise courier to be arranged and paid for by bidder.
