About this work
A young girl with dark curly hair held back by a red-and-gold headband stands turned toward a bright window, gaze off to the side; she wears an embroidered red dress over a full white blouse with puffed sleeves and holds a small orange fruit in her clasped hands. A basket of fruit sits in the lower corner against a dark green backdrop.
Painted in oil on canvas with confident, loaded brushwork, especially in the thickly built white sleeves and red skirt, light falls from the window across her face and hands while the deep green ground recedes into shadow. Warm reds and golds are set against cool greens in a traditional realist manner, giving the child a quiet, thoughtful presence.
