About this work

This painting shows two older men in a dim room. One sits by a window. The other leans on a table. A lamp glows between them. The artist made this for a book about a folk tale. The men look tired and wise. The dark colors make the light stand out. Check out more art by Stephen Gooden (British, 1892–1955).
