"Carro de bois" is a painting by Portuguese artist António de Carvalho da Silva Porto, created sometime during his lifetime (1850-1893). The artwork depicts a man riding in a cart pulled by two oxen. The scene likely takes place in a rural setting as indicated by the rustic attire of the man and the surrounding landscape. This artwork is characteristic of Silva Porto's genre paintings, known for their realistic depictions of everyday life in Portugal during the 19th century.
