Garlic Seller is a 1890 unspecified by Jean-François Raffaëlli, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
The painting depicts a man standing outdoors, holding a basket of garlic and a walking stick. He wears a hat, jacket, and pants, with a dog standing behind him. The background features a field with a fence and trees in the distance. The man's attire and the presence of the dog suggest a rural setting, possibly a farm or market. The basket of garlic implies that the man is a vendor or farmer. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Jean-François Raffaëlli, who often depicted everyday scenes and people in his art.
Jean-François Raffaëlli (April 20, 1850 – February 11, 1924) was a French realist painter, sculptor, and printmaker who exhibited with the Impressionists. He was also active as an actor and writer.
