About this work

This oil sketch shows a family group in an outdoor setting beneath dense foliage, with a standing man in a red robe and cap looking down at seated figures. A woman in a white dress leans over a child in her lap, while a girl in a light dress and white headscarf sits nearby holding a red flower. The loose, rapid brushwork is typical of a preparatory study. Thomas Couture painted this work in 1866, and it is held by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
