Signed on the front.

In this narrative oil painting, ā€˜Household Managementā€ a cheeky Magpie and Fairy Wren take on the role of a whimsical management team, adding a playful touch to the scene. Surrounded by vintage elements, including a large vase of gum blossoms and a plate of cherries and strawberries, the birds appear to oversee the domestic setting inspired by Mrs Beetonā€™s Household Management cookbook. This piece blends natureā€™s charm with a nod to historical homemaking, with the vase, plate, and books all from my grandmotherā€™s collection and celebrating the delightful interaction of wildlife with vintage elegance.
Already Framed in oak. Certificate of Authenticity supplied.
