About this work

A girl in a tattered coat stands on a London street. Her basket holds a few flowers. Flat colors make her pop against the dark background. This is part of the *London Types* series. The artist painted 20 scenes of ordinary people in the 1890s. The publisher wanted to show both men and women equally. See it at the Cleveland Museum of Art.
