About this work

This painting shows a woman with long, wavy hair and a red dress holding a baby. The baby is naked and has blonde hair. The woman is sitting on a green cushion with a red border. Above her head is a gold crown. Behind her is a dark background with a blue cloth and a small statue of a man holding a staff. The woman's dress is red, and the baby is wrapped in a blue cloth. The woman is looking down at the baby, who is looking up at her. The painting is very detailed, with intricate folds in the woman's dress and delicate features on the baby's face. The painting is held at the J. Paul Getty Museum.
