Description:
The oil gives no clues as to where the painting was executed apart from the green colour used to indicate the shutters of the window. Green shutters, in the colour of British colonialism, were abundantly used by the British for all government houses, offices and villas. The McCormack family most probably lived in one of these abodes.
