Large painting produced during the reign of Louis XVIII, depicting a tinker in the midst of a picturesque rural scene. Dressed in traditional clothing and wearing a large hat, the man stands looking into the distance, holding pots in his hands. The background shows a rural landscape with a green tree and a stone tower, under a blue sky dotted with clouds. This painting, with its meticulous detail and bucolic atmosphere, evokes a bygone era and a craft that has now disappeared.
This work by Fortière Delavau is accompanied by a magnificent molded frame in gilded wood, richly ornamented with carvings in each corner.
On the back we find the stamp of the canvas merchant "Belot".
