DescriptionA colorful bouquet of flowers including two pink tulips, yellow mums and pink snapdragons (?) occupies the center of the image. On the lower left, an old woman in a straw bonnet, glasses with blue frames, and a sleeveless blue blouse lies on her front, her smiling face resting on her folded arms. On the right, an old man in a blue shirt striped with red, a blue cap, and glasses with brown frames lies on his back, his hands folded behind his head. Both figures show only the head, shoulders, and arms.Provenance
