About the Item

A fine copy of Gustave Courbet 1849 oil, The Stonebreakers by A.P. Izquierdo. The scene depicts two pitiable characters breaking stones on the side of the road for work. This particular composition is considered by many as the founding work of realism. The artist has signed the scene to the lower left and the oil has been presented in a heavy gilt frame, with foliate cove and laurel branch running pattern. On canvas on stretchers.
