Playfulness is a photographic by Amerigo Focacci, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
The image depicts a black and white photograph of a sculpture, titled "Playfulness". The sculpture features a woman sitting on a circular base, with a child lying on the ground in front of her. The woman is nude, with her hair pulled back, and is leaning forward, looking down at the child. Her right arm is extended, and her left hand is resting on her knee. The child is also nude, with their head turned to the side, looking up at the woman. The sculpture is rendered in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the textures and contours of the figures. The overall mood of the piece is one of tenderness and intimacy, capturing a moment of quiet interaction between the two figures.
