Girl with a Bonnet at Work [recto]

Paul Sandby

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a woman bent over slightly at the waist, with her hands resting on the rim of a large basin in front of her. She has delicate facial features and her hair is styled neatly beneath a bonnet adorned with flowers. She wears a long dress with puffed sleeves and a gathered skirt. The setting appears minimal, focusing on the woman and the basin, with a plain background.
