Sisters in Blue

Sturtevant J. Hamblin

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two young children standing together. The child on the left has fuller cheeks and tightly curled brown hair, while the child on the right has longer, less curly hair. Both are dressed in blue dresses with white lace-trimmed sleeves and white pantaloons with lace. They wear blue shoes. The child on the left is holding red cherries, some of which are on the ground, and the child on the right holds a red book with a partially visible white page. The background is a simple, dark tone.
