THIS VERY INTERESTING LATE 19TH CENTURY LITTLE PAINTING HAD A FRAME WHICH WAS TOO BADLY WORMED TO SAVE AND SO IT HAS SAT IN MY ATTIC FOR AROUND 40 YEARS. IN THE STYLE OF PIETER BRUEGEL IT IS AN OIL PAINTING PAINTED ON ARTIST BOARD AND MEASURES 14.7CM LONG AND 11 CM WIDE. IN GOOD CONDITION WITH NO LOSSES IT WOULD BENEFIT FROM A GOOD FRAME. IT IS MONOGRAMMED TO THE LOWER RIGHT CORNER AS SHOWN. DEPICTING A CHARACTER IN A RED FOOLS OUTFIT PLAYING A DRUM WITH HIS TOUNGE OUT. SOME AGE SHRINK...AGE TO THE VARNISH AND A LITTLE DIRTY IT IS A VERY CHARACTERFUL EXAMPLE AND MAY BE DUTCH IN ORIGIN.
