About the piece
Frederick Bauhof's 'His Only Pair' is a touching genre painting from 1912 that captures a quiet moment of domestic life. The scene depicts an elderly woman intently sewing a pair of blue trousers, her concentration highlighted against the moody, dark interior, while a young boy watches from the side, suggesting a narrative of familial necessity and care.
