About the piece
Painted around 1650 by Bernhard Keil, known as Monsù Bernardo, this Italian Baroque work captures a moment of rustic innocence. The composition uses dramatic light and shadow to highlight the children's expressions and the textures of the woven basket and the dog's fur, making it a sophisticated addition to any traditional space.
