David Boyd, member of the Boyd family dynasty, is among the great feelers of Australian art. In this work, he pictures a child in an orchard. An image of peace and prosperity, the child reaches for a plum, symbolic of fruitfulness.
Flurried, richly coloured and cherubic, this work is for lovers of Boyd, art and poetry, a perfect gift for you or your loved one.
