Visual Summary

Brief Description

Young child with light hair, wearing a lace cap and patterned dress, against a dark background

Detailed Description

An oval-shaped oil painting depicts a young child's upper body, centered against a dark, plain background. The child has fair skin, dark eyes, and light brown hair visible beneath a white lace cap. The cap features a delicate, openwork pattern around its edge. The child's face is round, with rosy cheeks, a small nose, and a closed mouth with slightly parted lips. They wear a wide, flat white collar with a narrow band of white lace trim along its edge, extending over the shoulders. Below the collar, the child's dress is dark brown or black, covered in a dense, repeating pattern of small, gold, stylized fleur-de-lis motifs. A horizontal sash of a lighter, golden-brown fabric with a slight sheen wraps around the waist, adorned with five overlapping, petal-like shapes across the front. The sleeves of the dress are puffed at the shoulders, with a darker, solid brown fabric visible on the inner arm, and end in white cuffs with vertical pleats and a lace trim matching the collar.
