About this work

This looks like a faded drawing of a woman holding a child. The faces are simple shapes with big eyes and dark outlines. The background is mostly dark with some faded red and gold lines, and the paint is peeling in spots. The woman’s head is framed by a circle, which might be a halo. The drawing looks old and worn, like it’s been handled a lot. Check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more pieces like this.
