This painting shows two young girls in white dresses standing in a garden. They are holding lanterns and surrounded by flowers. The girls are looking down at the lanterns, and the flowers are pink and white. The painting is very colorful, with lots of different shades of pink and white. The flowers are painted in a loose, expressive style, and the girls' dresses are smooth and flowing. If you like this painting, you might also like the work of artist John Singer Sargent.
