About this work

You see a young girl standing, wearing a knee-length dress. She has a neutral expression and long wavy hair. The girl is set against a backdrop of paneling, which suggests she's indoors. Her dress has a gentle texture, with details enhanced by light pencil work. The artist used simple lines to draw her. To learn more about this style, look at the technique: lithography.
