A gentle scene of childhood bliss: three children at leisure in a sun-lit garden, rendered in soft washes of pastel greens, creams, and sky blue. The brushwork is light and economical, capturing the carefree joy and innocence of outdoor play, common themes in early 20th-century British genre painting.

Medium & Support: Watercolour on paper, mounted behind glass in period gilt frame.

Frame: Original frame with period mat; gilt finish with gentle wear.

Condition: The paper has aged with a few faint marks and some mild toning. Mount and frame show expected age-related wear (scuffs, slight gilt loss), but everything is structurally sound and beautifully presentable.

Dimensions:

Framed: approx. 33 cm × 37 cm

Visible (image) area: slightly smaller due to mount

Notes: A graceful piece that would suit a cottage interior, library or nursery wall. Falls in nicely with styles that favour light, airy domestic scenes. Ready to hang.
