National Gallery of Art

The image displays a young child sitting upright on a fluffy surface. The child has short, curly hair tied with a bow and wears a white dress with ruffled collar, white stockings, and dark shoes. Their hands rest on their lap as they sit with legs dangling. A wicker furniture piece is on the left side. The background is out of focus with indistinct shapes and shadows, resembling a studio portrait setting.
