Description
A small girl stands on a garden path, her blonde curls topped with a bright red bow, wearing a dark blue dress trimmed with white lace and rows of buttons down the front. In one hand she holds a small green watering can, and a few daisies peek out near her other hand. She looks off to the side with a calm, slightly shy expression, her dark blue boots planted on the sandy path.
Painted in 1876, the child is set against a lush garden of thick green grass and beds of pink and red flowers, the greenery built from dense, varied brushstrokes that give the whole background a soft, glowing warmth. The red of her hair ribbon echoes the flowers behind her, tying the small figure to her surroundings.
The print reproduces the crisp white lace of her dress and the deep greens of the garden with close attention to detail. Available as a canvas or fine-art paper giclée print, in a size suited to a child’s room or family wall.
