Repairing the Bicycle is a 1895 oil by John Quinton Pringle, a Impressionism work, held at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.
This painting shows a man kneeling on the ground, fixing a bicycle. He's wearing a cap and dark clothing. The bike is black, and the man is holding a wheel. There's a small wooden shed behind him, with a window and a sloping roof. The background is a red brick wall. The man seems focused on his task, and the setting looks like a quiet alley or backyard. The colors are muted, with lots of browns and grays. You might want to check out more paintings by John Quinton Pringle.
