This painting shows a woman in a red dress and a green shawl, holding a baby. The woman's head is covered with a cloth, and she is looking down at the baby. The baby is naked and standing on a table or shelf, with one hand on the woman's hand and the other touching the woman's head. The woman and baby are in front of a red background with a circular shape around the woman's head. There is a landscape painting on the left side of the image, but it is hard to see. The painting is held at the Museum of Ethnography. To learn more about the techniques used in this painting, look up chiaroscuro.
