About this work
A girl in a navy sailor-collared top and white pleated skirt stands beside a garden swing, one hand steadying a younger auburn-haired girl who leans back mid-motion in a pink top and red-striped skirt, hair blowing loose. An open umbrella lies dropped on the ground below the swing seat; behind the pair a garden path leads past a wicker chair and small table, banks of cornflowers and sunflowers, and a distant line of trees and pale sky.
Dusty mauves, soft ochres and muted greens are laid in flat, even light with simplified, slightly elongated figures. The quiet palette and stilled pose of the standing girl give the scene a gentle, nostalgic calm.
