Bakery shop folk painting is a vintage, Greek folk art painting of a baker at work in his shop.It's got fresh bread loaves on the side and a 'Baker's' sign on top.
It was made in the late nineties by folk artist, E. Kokori, who still works on and off, when she is not collecting her favourite old furniture pieces and old, discarded wood.The colours used here are icon painting colours, mixed with egg, a difficult and tricky procedure.
From these, very pieces of wood, the salvaged pieces of old wood she painted many lovely, folk scenes, like this terrific baker in front of his traditional oven.
This vintage, Greek folk art painting shows a typical, Greek baker, very much so in existence today as in the old days.Traditional bakers, now much in demand have now new machinery, but their work in fron f the oven is as pictured here.The oven iswall is laid with yellow bricks.The baker is standing in front of the open oven taking two round loaves out with his long stick, ooden shovel..He is wearing a baker's, beige cap and a beige apron, over his shirt and pants.
On the right of the painting the wall is filled with bread shelves, displaying bread loaves for sale and a black, table surface, also filled with various breads.

The frame/border of the picture is berry red/dark red with an extra piece of rectangular wood, nailed on its top part.It is like a sign of the shop and reads 'Baker's' , 'Artopoieion', 'Αρτοποιείον' in old Greek in white paint.
At the back this painting is painted black with acrylic paint and has a piece of wire hoop attached to hang the painting on the wall.

This vintage, Greek folk painting of the baker's shop measures 23.5cm in height x 18cm in length x 3cm in width (9.25'' x 7.08'' x 1.18'' ).It is a unique piece of old, reclaimed wood.
It is in very good condition. Whatever minor cracks and dents there might be, have always been there, as shabby style details.
