About this work

This painting shows a woman holding a baby. She wears a striped dress with green and white, a white headscarf, and a dark apron. The baby is wrapped in a red and white cloth. The background is blurry with red and brown shapes, like a curtain or fabric. The brushstrokes are thick, giving the painting a textured, almost rough look. The colors pop against each other, especially the green stripes and the woman’s skin tone. If you like this style, look up impasto.
