About this work
Two women in kokoshniks and patterned sarafans stand on either side of a small girl in matching folk dress, one resting a hand on the child's shoulder and the other on her arm. Behind them a village unfolds in loose perspective: low wooden houses, a fence, and a tall church bell tower against an open sky.
The drawing is worked in fine pen and ink line, with dense cross-hatching and stippling describing the costumes' floral embroidery and fabric texture. Broad flat areas of dark ink define the women's cloaks against a lightly toned paper, while the background village is rendered in a few economical, sketch-like strokes. The effect is graphic and decorative, precise in costume detail yet calm and formal.
