About this work

This painting shows a woman in a bright orange robe holding a small child. Both have golden halos with leaves around them. The background is mostly blue with white clouds and red-orange borders. The woman’s hands are clasped, and the child reaches toward her. The halos have words written in them, which might hint at who they’re meant to represent. The leaves around the halos look like they’re part of a crown or symbol. Look up leaf to see how it’s used in other religious art.
