About the work
In the museum's own words — in Spanish
Apunte de primera época presentando personajes populares en un grupo de tres huertanos de avanzada edad sentados en sillas sencillas, ocupando una esquina de un interior o de un patio. En el ángulo inferior izquierdo, se observa la pierna de un campesino sentado en un murete calzado con alpargatas. Junto a una pared en el suelo, un par de zapatillas. A la derecha, se abre una puerta que deja ver otro espacio con parte de un banco. Debajo de ésta, la inscripción Buñol.
