About this work
A young woman with long brown hair is shown close up from the chest, her head bowed and eyes lowered in concentration as she stretches a loop of white string between her fingers in the cat's cradle game. She wears a plain red top, and behind her a row of pale blue rooftops and buildings recedes into soft focus.
Warm flesh tones and the red of her clothing stand out against the cool, hazy blue of the background city. The face and hands are rendered with careful realist detail, while the distant buildings are loosely brushed, creating a calm, inward, contemplative mood centered on the simple gesture of her hands.
