CONTINENTAL SCHOOL (19th century). The Family Doctor, 1873, Oil on canvas. Signed "B.M." and dated 1873. The composition shows a man, likely a doctor or elder, examining a baby wrapped in white cloth. A woman, possibly the mother, stands beside them, observing.

The interaction between the figures and their expressions suggest a moment of concern and care, potentially related to the baby's health. Framed. - 12 1/2 x 8 1/2 in., Frame: 18 x 14 in.
