Anne with a Japanese Parasol

George Bellows

National Gallery of Art

This painting shows a young girl standing and facing forward. She is holding an open, dark-colored parasol with one hand and a small, indistinct object with the other hand. She stands on a red carpet, and the open top of the parasol rests on the floor. The girl has pale yellow skin, bright blue eyes, and wavy blonde hair under a black cap. She is wearing a dark green pinafore over a white blouse with lace details, white stockings, and black shoes. In the background, there is a blue wall with a green curtain on the right side. A vase with red flowers is partially visible on the ground to the right.
