Daily life scene

Period: 18th Century .

Dim: 98 x 70 cm (38.58 × 27.56 inch.)

This 17th-century tile panel, painted in shades of blue on a white background, depicts a pastoral scene framed by a decorative border with vegetal and geometric motifs. At the center, three male figures are seen wearing garments typical of the nobility of the time, including capes and wide-brimmed hats, walking through a landscape with trees and vegetation. In the foreground, a figure of an ox, partially submerged in water, suggests the crossing of a river or lake. The composition reflects the decorative and narrative style characteristic of Portuguese tilework.
