About the piece
Painted in 1877, this light-filled scene by Eva Gonzalès captures a quiet moment of domestic life in the late 19th century. The nanny sits elegantly in a tiered pink dress holding a small bouquet of wildflowers, while a young boy in a blue coat peers through a garden gate, with a blue parasol resting on the ground nearby.
