Petit profil (Seated Girl Wearing a Red Coat and a Blue Hat)

Gwen John

National Gallery of Art

This image shows a side profile of the upper body of a person, who appears to be a child. They are seated and facing to the left, with their head turned slightly so that their profile is visible. The child has short, brown hair peeking out from under a blue hat that has a red pom-pom on top. They are wearing a bright red garment with a white collar. The child is seated on a simple wooden chair. The background of the image is a muted purplish color.
