Attributed to Samuel Baldwin - Preparing for a walk

      Attributed to Samuel Baldwin, it depicts a quiet domestic pause. Soft morning light grazes a modest interior where a figure buttons a coat beside a chair. Muted earth tones, attentive brushwork, and balanced composition emphasize routine over drama. Objects, a hat, gloves, and sturdy shoes anchor the scene, while a hidden window suggests fresh air beyond. The mood is contemplative, celebrating preparation as a tender moment before motion and the day’s small adventures unfolding quietly, intimate and humane.
