About this work

This painting shows a woman in bright red and blue holding a smaller child. Both have golden halos and serious faces. The background is dark with two winged figures floating above them. The colors are flat and bold, with lots of gold and red details. The woman’s red robe has small white dots, and the child wears a simple yellow tunic. The frame looks old and worn, with dark wood and faded gold trim. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists create shading with lines.
