About this work

The painting depicts a woman holding a baby, both seated in a chair. The woman wears a dark dress with a white collar and a red scarf around her neck. The baby is dressed in a white onesie. The background of the painting is a muted green color. The woman's facial expression is calm, and she gazes down at the baby with a gentle smile. The baby's eyes are closed, and its tiny hands are curled up in a fist. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity and intimacy. This painting is held at the Groeningemuseum.
