Children in a Field
1960

Impressionistic painting of two figures in a lush green field, with one figure appearing to be an adult and the other a child, both wearing red, holding hands and facing away from the viewer. The background features a serene landscape with trees, a body of water, and a hint of buildings under a vast, overcast sky. The artwork is signed and dated in the lower right corner.
