Visual Summary

Brief Description

A woman in a red dress holding a baby who looks directly out

Detailed Description

A vertical image features a woman holding a baby, positioned slightly left of the canvas's vertical center. The woman, with long dark brown hair parted in the middle, wears a flowing, deep red gown with long sleeves and white cuffs. A blue cloth is draped over her lap. Her head is tilted down and to her right, and her eyes are cast downwards. Her left hand rests gently on her lap, while her right arm supports the baby. The baby, with light, curly hair, is seated upright in the woman's lap, facing forward with its gaze directed out of the image. Its skin is fair, and a white, loosely draped cloth covers its lower body, leaving its chest and legs bare. The baby's left arm is raised, with its hand near the woman's chest. A subtle, lighter glow surrounds the woman's head. The background is a dark, undifferentiated gray-brown. Soft lighting creates gentle shadows that define the forms of the figures and their drapery.
