About the piece

Painted in 1917 by Auguste Petit, this endearing double portrait captures the Misses Robillard de Marigny in a lush, verdant garden. The children are dressed in matching white lace dresses, holding freshly picked roses, set against a park-like backdrop featuring a distant statue and winding path.
