This painting differs from many of Filmus's Jewish scenes, in that he uses brighter colors in the dresses of the women then he normally used in such scenes. Signed in lower right hand corner. This painting is in excellent condition. The painting is accompanied by the 1966 book "Tully Filmus", which is personally inscribed by Filmus. The book has some wear, dust cover has tears.
