Frau und Kind im Freien mit rotem Parasol c. 1870 - 1890

"Frau und Kind im Freien mit rotem Parasol" is a painting by German artist Albert von Keller, dating from around 1870-1890. The artwork portrays a woman and a child, likely a mother and her daughter, dressed in white with a red parasol resting on the ground nearby. The subject is positioned against a dark, blurred background, likely representing a wooded outdoor setting. The painting exhibits a loose, Impressionistic style with visible brushstrokes, particularly in the depiction of the woman's clothing and the foliage. Keller's use of light and color is evident in the contrasting bright red of the parasol and the soft, pale tones of the figures. This painting embodies a quintessential moment of family life in the late 19th century, with the woman and child evoking a sense of tenderness and domesticity.
