Amerikanische Malerei 1913–1931, 1916

This painting shows an adult woman and two children on a white lounge chair. The adult is sitting on the chair with her legs extended, supporting one of the children who is lying across her lap. The woman has pale skin and brown hair in a bun, and she wears a dark purple dress with white boots. She has no visible facial features. The child on her lap has blonde hair and wears a light purple dress with white stockings and brown shoes. This child faces us, with rosy cheeks, blue eyes, and red lips in a slight smile. A second child stands next to the chair and has the woman's arm around them. They are leaning forward towards the other child and facing away from us. This child has long blond hair and wears a pink dress. The three people are positioned under a green-and-white striped canopy in a lush green outdoor setting, with trees and foliage in the background and at their feet. In the distance behind them, a small white house is visible among the trees.
