About this work

This painting shows a man and woman standing side by side, holding up a small village scene. The village has bright blue doors, white walls, and a few people gathered outside. The man wears a white hat and a patterned shirt, while the woman has a dark, dotted dress with embroidered details. Their hands are large and warm-toned, framing the village like a window. The village scene includes a few smaller figures, some holding flowers or baskets. The background is a dark blue night sky with tiny stars. The colors are bold and flat, with no deep shadows or blending. Look up the Museum of Ethnography to see where this print is kept.
