Child with a Bird (Mademoiselle Fleury in Algerian Costume) is a 1892 oil by Auguste Renoir, a Impressionism work, held at Clark Art Institute.
This painting shows a young girl in a colorful outfit, holding a bird. She's wearing a yellow headscarf, a white top with gold accents, and a red sash around her waist. Her blue shoes have a gold buckle. The girl is standing on a tiled floor, and there's a white curtain behind her with red flowers. The girl's costume and the curtain suggest she's in a warm place, maybe indoors. The artist used a lot of colors to make the scene feel lively.

Pierre-Auguste Renoir was born on 25 February 1841 in Limoges, the son of a tailor and a seamstress.
