"Portrait Of Three Children, Large Oil On Canvas 1854"
Portrait of three young boys, probably brothers, gathered around a table. One is standing, the other two are sitting. They are wearing dark clothes, with large white collars and colored ribbons tied around their necks – a typical children's fashion of the mid-19th century. On the table are albums open to engravings or drawings, suggesting a cultivated family environment. The background is enlivened by a wide dark green curtain, which highlights the composition. The looks are direct, serious, and full of restraint.
Oil on canvas signed lower right J. Goblet and dated 1854.
