About this work
A young girl stands on a small stool with her back to the viewer, arms outstretched, wearing a plain sleeveless white dress and a small hair clip. An elderly woman kneels beside her, eyes closed, cheek close to the hem as she pins or stitches the skirt. A wooden chair behind them holds a folded cardigan and a jar of spools and pins, with a small bottle and scraps of fabric scattered on the floor.
A near-monochrome palette of ivory, grey and faint lilac covers the whole canvas, softened by chalky, matte brushwork and diffuse, shadowless light. The muted tones and quiet gestures give the domestic scene a tender, hushed intimacy.
