Tuke was a strong supporter of the New English Art Club, and the rather sentimental anecdotal quality in this painting was alien to its principles - and indeed was unusual in Tuke’s work. Even here, however, the boy’s expression is ambiguous and uncertain and the picture is more than a mere celebration of young love. The rather awkward composition with the two figures arbitrarily cut off at bust or waist height and pushed into one corner also reflects Newlyn and Impressionist principles, although Tuke may also have got the idea from the very different style of Lawrence Alma-Tadema.
