Boy from Concarneau

About this work

This painting shows a young boy sitting on the ground. He's wearing a dark beret, a brown jacket, and shorts. His legs are bare, and he's holding his right leg up, resting his hand on his knee. The background is blurry, but it looks like he's sitting in front of a stone wall, with some greenery around him. The boy's expression is calm and serious. He's looking straight ahead, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes. His clothing and the setting suggest that he might be from a working-class family.
