Talk:The Young Sabot Maker

crossbar handle of a sawhorse

It appears that the crossbar handle is that of an auger rather than a sawhorse, which is not typically equipped with one. 73.45.71.248 (talk) 07:08, 21 June 2021 (UTC)

The Young Sabot Maker is an oil-on-canvas painting made by the American artist Henry Ossawa Tanner in 1895. It was accepted for the 1895 Paris Salon, and was Tanner's second painting entered for the Salon. The painting follows a theme Tanner used for his genre paintings, "age instructing youth", which can also be seen in The Bagpipe Lesson and The Banjo Lesson. The painting was purchased by a group of donors and sponsors and given to the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1995.
