Portrait of a Young Boy

Catherine Lusurier

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts the upper body of a young child facing slightly to the right. The child has a slight tilt to their head and a gentle expression. They have softly curled hair, bright eyes, soft eyebrows, a small nose, and full lips. The child is wearing a buttoned garment with a visible white shirt collar. One of their hands is raised to their chest with slightly curled fingers. The background has a textured appearance with a muted color.
