Last Love

Two figures share a plank bench, shoulder against shoulder. He wears a slate jacket over checked trousers and holds a small glass; his right arm rests across her shoulders. She keeps a straw-covered flask in her lap, a bonnet tied at the chin, a fringed pink shawl over a flowered apron. A wicker basket of onions and peppers tips against the bench end, and the turquoise skirt closes the group along the gilded oval base.
