Description
Size: 12.5? x 17? Framed: 23? x 28.” Beautiful molded walnut frame with fine dark color and patina, 19th c.
This nostalgic painting recalls the simpler days of childhood when children rode their bicycles to the neighborhood ice cream shop. The boy, whose bike is smaller than the other two, is probably tagging along behind an older brother, something many of us with siblings might well remember.
Masters builds the narrative through his meticulous observation of details- we see the OPEN sign, the “Grade A Inspection” sign and the soda jerk- all framed within the golden spandrels. Looking closer, in the second-story windows above, we see the daylight from the windows in the adjacent wall, which serves only to enhance the realism of this delightful painting. -
