William Matthew Prior

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a young child standing upright. The child has light-colored, short hair, a pale complexion, and delicate features. They are dressed in a dark garment with a dotted pattern and light edges, light-colored pantaloons, patterned socks, and dark shoes with bows. In their right hand, the child holds a stick with a string attached, and in their left hand, they hold a string connected to a small colorful toy horse pulling a cart. The backdrop consists of red curtains on the sides, against a wooden floor and wall.
