My grandmother who was born in 1900 was a painter who copied this painting and had it hanging in her dining room for as long as I could remember. It haunted me all my life. When she died the painting went to my cousin who knows what she did with it. One day antique shopping I found a Borin print of it in the original frame. They both were in good condition and the color in the print were just as I remembered from grandmothers oil painting. It now hangs above my bed. It took me a long time to find out the name and artist of this painting but I did. There is something about this painting that quietly speaks to the viewer about life and how it can be viewed. Every time I look at it I quietly think of my grandmother.
