About this work
A woman in a white headscarf and blue mantle over a red dress holds a barefoot infant against her shoulder, his hand resting on her chest. They stand within a carved stone archway; through it, the domes, canals, bridge and rooftops of a northern city stretch beneath a pale sky streaked with clouds.
Cool blues and soft reds are handled with smooth, careful modeling typical of academic religious painting, the figures lit gently against an airy, luminous cityscape. The tender contact between mother and child, framed by solid stone, creates a calm, protective mood.
