W. J. Jones, A Man Napping on a Garden Bench, Oil on Canvas - This oil on canvas painting by W. J. Jones depicts a humorous, naive-style scene of an older, portly man sleeping on a wooden garden bench. The subject is wearing a white shirt with braces, blue trousers, and brown shoes. He is shown clutching a beer can, with two further cans and a copy of The Sun newspaper on the ground. A black and white collie-type dog is asleep on the path, and a small bird perches on the backrest of the bench. The scene is set against a thick green hedge under a blue sky with white clouds. The work is signed W. J. JONES. in the lower-left corner and is presented in a white-painted multi-tiered wooden frame. Frame: 59 cm x 76 cm.
