Le Dessert

François Bonvin

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a young child sitting in a chair, holding an object in their hands. The child appears relaxed, with their head turned slightly to the side in focus on the object. The child has short, curly hair underneath a hat or cap and is wearing loose-fitting clothing. Their footwear includes striped socks and soft shoes. Additionally, there is a table with a round object and a small slice of food on the floor nearby, set against a plain background with sketchy textures.
