Daniel R. Celentano

The First Born
1937

Oil painting depicting a family scene with four figures, likely from the early 20th century. A seated woman in a pink blouse and blue skirt holds a young child on her lap, while a man in a white shirt and brown trousers stands beside her, reaching out his hand. Behind them, another woman in a green cardigan and maroon dress looks on with a concerned expression. A white cloth hangs in the background, and a small table with a bottle and glass is partially visible to the right. The painting has a somber tone with muted colors and expressive faces conveying a sense of intimacy and perhaps concern or contemplation.
