The Child and the Mirror

About this work

This painting shows a young child sitting on a furry rug, looking at their reflection in a mirror. The child has curly hair and is naked, sitting on a white cloth with a patterned pillow in front of them. The mirror is in a dark frame, and the background is dark with a shiny fabric behind the child. The child's reflection in the mirror looks a bit different from how they look in real life, which is an interesting detail.
