Alfred Provis (1843-1886)
Alfred Provis was a painter of mainly domestic and genre scenes. He exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1846 and 1876, as well as exhibiting at Suffolk Streetand The British Institution.
Provis specialised in small, detailed interiors of cottages and farmhouses, with women and children performing household chores.
Provis's luminous brown palette abandons the 'principal' for a less, narrow solution of light and a freer analysis, drawing the viewer's eye all around the whole of his canvas.
