About this work

This painting shows a woman in a large, elaborate dress sitting on a couch with three children around her. The woman wears a big hat and a low-cut dress with a lot of frills. She has a necklace and is looking at one of the children, who is standing on a table. Another child is sitting on the floor, and the third is standing next to the couch. There are flowers and other objects on the table. The room is decorated with fancy furniture and curtains. The painting is done in oil paint and has a lot of detail. It looks like it was made a long time ago. If you like this painting, you might also want to look at the work of artist Charles Le Clercq.
