Portrait of a Girl

William Edward Kilburn

National Gallery of Art

In the image, there is a young girl standing in a full-body portrait. She has dark hair styled neatly into two buns with a middle parting. The girl is wearing a light pink knee-length dress with ruffled designs and floral details, featuring an off-the-shoulder neckline. She is holding a basket of colorful flowers in her left hand and has a delicate necklace with a small pendant. The background shows a painted backdrop with light clouds.
