Boy of the Beekman Family

Amerikanische Malerei 1720–1765, kb. 1720

The artwork depicts a full-body portrait of a young boy standing with one hand on his hip and the other arm outstretched with a small bird perched on his finger. The boy has shoulder-length, curly light brown hair and is gazing directly at the viewer. He is dressed in a brown outfit with a white lace collar and cuffs, and is draped with a blue fabric that flows around him. He is wearing knee-length pants, white stockings, and black shoes. Beside him, a dog stands, looking up at the boy. The background features a dark interior with a glimpse of an outdoor scene through a window, showing a sunset sky with trees silhouetted against it.
