About this work
A dark-haired woman in a red-and-white striped top stands behind a girl seated cross-legged in a large cream-colored armchair, carefully braiding or combing her hair. The barefoot child, dressed in pink striped leggings, holds a green apple and looks toward the viewer. The setting is a painter's studio, with framed canvases, a portrait, a potted plant and a red shelving unit of books and brushes surrounding the pair.
Warm neutral tones of cream, ochre and terracotta dominate, set off by the woman's red stripes and the red bookshelf, with soft, even studio light modeling the figures naturally. Brushwork is smooth and controlled in the faces and skin, looser in the background paintings, creating an intimate, tender domestic mood.
