About this work
A round-faced woman with a dark bob wears a voluminous mustard-yellow gown, holding a thin white flower beside a small stone tower-shaped pedestal. Above her floats a large pink flower-like form on which a winged lion with a maned, human-like face balances, its tail curled with a blue tassel. A slender church spire rises in the distance, and a carved stone face lies on the ground at right.
Smooth, porcelain modeling of the figure's skin contrasts with loosely textured, impasto foliage. A cool jade-green sky streaked with pink cloud sets off the golden dress and pink flower-form. The pairing of a still, doll-like figure with a fantastical winged creature produces a hushed, theatrical strangeness.
