Over het schilderij
Painted in 1810, Barker showed this work at the British Institution in the following year. The boy is shown sat down on a log to take a thorn out of his foot.
The theme of a boy extracting a thorn from his foot is an old one in art that would have been recognised by a nineteenth century audience as referring to renaissance and antique examples. The pastel colours combine to create soft tone that conveys the sentiment of the subject. Such paintings of children were popular in the early to mid nineteenth century.
