Image description
The artwork depicts a young girl shown from the waist up. She is positioned facing forward, holding a basket filled with flowers. Her facial features include large blue eyes and rosy cheeks, framed by a lace bonnet tied with a pink ribbon. She wears a blue dress with a detailed lace collar. The background is a muted, dark tone, which contrasts with the vibrant colors of the flowers and her clothing.
