About this work

This painting shows a young girl sitting on a red cushion, holding a book in her right hand and a pink flower in her left. She wears a blue dress with white pants underneath, and a red necklace around her neck. A gray cat stands beside her, looking up at the flower. The girl sits in front of a red curtain, with a window to her left showing a tree and a body of water. The overall atmosphere is calm and serene.
