Dark Matters - Maxwell Gordon Lightfoot - The Rag Pickers

Maxwell Gordon Lightfoot - The Rag Pickers, a photo by Miriam Ward on Flickr.

This is another painting which seems to have such desolation, yet has smooth soft lines which I think adds to the soft focus or low light appearance of the overall composition. I like the textured background and the darker shades and shadows of the rag pickers
