About this work

The painting shows a woman and child sitting on a throne. The woman is dressed in simple clothes and the child is looking up at her. This painting is interesting because it uses a traditional technique to depict a quiet scene. It's similar to work done using the technique of tempera on wood, which is also seen in the work of other artists who use a method called sfumato, but for more on that, look up the technique: sfumato.
