Myles Birket Foster
British (1825-1899), W/C, Image: 6" (W) x 8" (H), Signed Monogram

This adorable watercolor, by the acclaimed Myles Birket Foster, depicts a woman and child feeding bunnies. The young woman is dressed in a lovely dress with frills at the sleeves and at the collar, while she is holding a rabbit in her hand. The small girl is rendered equally admirable with an apron on top of her dress and a romantic bonnet on her head. In the background a tree with beautifully curved branches is visible together with low bushes, long grass and an old garden well. Foster painted in a stippled technique with great technical skill. This is a superb painting by a marvelous English artist. A painting by Foster was sold at Christie's in London on 28 November 2001 for $305,837.
