About the piece
Painted by Johann Zoffany around 1770, this 'conversation piece' captures the Lavie children in an informal, lively moment. The scene features the children playing on a see-saw and interacting with a small dog against the backdrop of a grand old tree and a distant valley, rendered with the artist's characteristic attention to detail and texture.
