UPSTAIRS, DOWNSTAIRS

Egg Tempera on panel
Private Collection

‘Upstairs, Downstairs’ could well be the chant of any mother with children as she goes up and down the steps with a basket full of wash. In this painting, the old antique varnished doors represent the upstairs and the downstairs while the basket this time is filled with sunlight, another ingredient necessary for a successful washday.
