About the piece
Painted in 1881 by Pierre Carrier-Belleuse, this oil on panel work captures a quiet moment of Victorian family life. The artist masterfully renders the play of light on the mother's tiered gown and the child's white apron against a backdrop of ornate damask wallpaper and dark, polished furniture.
