Reminds me of my youth. There was a park with a concrete tennis court next to mum’s veg garden. She got tired of players “looking for balls” breaking her plants and stealing tomatoes etc. She let nettles grow waist-high just her side of the property line.
Once again, so far, no work, by this artist, has appeared in Mr. Melcher’s blog (if that changes, the first link will list them). A slightly-different-coloration coloration, maybe-click-to-enlarge image can be found here.The Stone Breaker is shown, with a framed, different coloration, enlarged image (click-to-humongous image compliments of its Google Cultural Institute page), and described, by its current-location page.Around the same time, the artist also painted (click both for full-size, preceding links show auction result pages)
andboth with the same title. The artist’s Wikipedia page and collection (more under Subcategories at each level).
Okay, if they’re breaking stones, what the heck are they using to break them? That’s why e1 assumed it was a golfer. Weren’t sledgehammers invented, yet? The mystery goes on.
It was fun to once again watch (don’t if profanity offends you, or golf is your favorite sport — embedding it might risk being banned by GoComics) this routine by the late, great, George Carlin.

This was his 4th bad shot. Knowing that bad shots occurred in groups of 3; he realized he was onto his next grouping of 3.
