Unknown artist After William Rothenstein, "Carrying the Law," Jewish Religious Scene. A carefully rendered Jewish religious interior depicting three men wrapped in prayer shawls engaged in a Torah procession, closely following the composition of William Rothenstein's celebrated 1907 painting Carrying the Law (now in the collection of Bradford Art Galleries and Museums, West Yorkshire). The central figure bears a Torah scroll with mantle and finials, flanked by worshippers in quiet devotion, set against an interior with shelves of religious texts. Executed in a restrained, academic manner reflective of early 20th century Jewish genre painting. Presented in a period-style wood frame with later backing. Condition consistent with age.
