About this work
A young girl is shown close up, her head encircled by a dense crown of white daisies, small pink blossoms and green foliage that spills over both shoulders. She looks directly out at the viewer with a faint smile, her brown hair pulled into loose braids threaded through the flowers, set against a plain warm-toned backdrop.
The face is modeled smoothly in soft flesh tones and gentle shadow, while the wreath is built up with thick, textured strokes of white, ochre and magenta that stand proud of the canvas. Warm neutral hues frame a diffuse, even light, and the loose, tactile brushwork around the flowers contrasts with the finer handling of the features, giving the image an intimate, tender feel.
