About this work

This painting shows a woman holding a small child, both with golden halos. She wears a red robe with gold trim and a dark headscarf, while the child has a light brown tunic. On either side of them float two small, glowing figures with wings. The woman’s face is calm, but her hands are raised slightly, as if gesturing. The paint looks thick in spots, especially on the gold parts. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
