Visual Summary

Brief Description

A seated older girl holds a young child with a fruit in a dark, wooded setting

Detailed Description

A vertical oil painting depicts an older girl or young woman seated, holding a small child on her lap, against a dark, wooded background. The older figure, positioned slightly to the right of center, wears a white coif, a white long-sleeved blouse, a dark sleeveless garment, and a long, reddish-brown skirt. Her bare feet are visible, one resting on the ground, the other tucked beneath her skirt. Her gaze is directed slightly to the viewer's right, with a neutral expression. The child, seated on her lap and facing forward, wears a red cap, a reddish-brown top, a patterned shawl, and a blue-green skirt. The child's bare feet dangle. In both hands, the child holds a light yellow, round fruit. The child looks directly at the viewer with a calm expression. The background features dense, dark green foliage and trees, with a lighter green, open area visible on the left side. The ground beneath the figures is composed of earthy tones and rocks.
