No. 92.—GRACE BEFORE MEAT

(Le Bénédicité)

In the centre of a room, by a round table with a white tablecloth,

stands a woman, about to pour the soup from a saucepan into a

plate. She turns her head to the left towards her two little girls,

who, with folded hands, are saying grace. A drum is suspended from

the back of the chair on which the younger child is sitting. In the

background, on the left, a dresser with pewter and crockery; on the

right, a shelf with a canister, a bowl, and some bottles.

Painted in oil on canvas.
