The painting depicts a young girl holding a doll. The girl is dressed in a red dress with white polka dots and a white lace collar. She has dark hair and is standing in front of a white wall. The girl's expression is neutral, and she is looking directly at the viewer. The doll she is holding is also looking at the viewer, and it has blonde hair. The overall atmosphere of the painting is quiet and intimate. The use of chiaroscuro in this painting creates a sense of depth and volume, drawing the viewer's attention to the girl and her doll.
