1830
unspecified
From the collection of National Galleries Scotland
Two Seated Men (study for 'The Covenanters' Baptism') is a 1830 unspecified by George Harvey, held at National Galleries Scotland.
This painting shows two men sitting side by side, facing left. The man in front wears a brown coat and dark pants, holding a wooden object in his hands. Behind him, another man is visible from the shoulders up, wearing a dark jacket. The scene is set against a light-colored background, with visible brushstrokes and texture. The overall mood is one of quiet contemplation, with the men lost in thought. To learn more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro, explore the technique further.
Sir George Frederick Harvey (1 February 1806 – 22 January 1876) was a Scottish painter and President of the Royal Scottish Academy.
