Description : La lettera

Oil on canvas. English school of the late 19th-early 20th century. Signed Drummonds lower left. The scene, set in the countryside, features an elderly farmer who, having stopped working in the fields, as indicated by the two draft horses harnessed to the plow behind him, reads a letter with the help of a young woman, while a small girl offers wild flowers to her mother. The letterhead reads the incipit "Dear father"; on the ground is the envelope with an address to England. The familiar scene evokes the tenderness of the young woman towards the elderly man, probably her father-in-law, with whom she shares the joy of the news received from the dear distant one. The work is presented in a golden frame from the mid-20th century.
