La Leçon

Small scale 19th century Italian School oil painting on wooden panel under glass.

A scene with a balanced light and a moderate glow to the palette, true to interior lighting. A beautiful movement is captured with alternating thin and voluminous brush strokes. Softness and lightness emerge from the Italian interior scene where a woman in white sits at a piano with a child on her lap, while another woman leans over the piano, maybe watching, perhaps singing.
