You see a woman standing in a garden, surrounded by trees and flowers. The woman's face is calm and serene, and she's dressed in a long dress. She's the main focus of the painting, but there's a child in the background wearing a straw hat, likely based on Morisot's daughter Julie. The painting tells us about Morisot's life and her family. You can learn more about the artist's style by looking at the work of Berthe Morisot.
