Seated Toddler (Girl)

The child has settled on a broad cushion whose corners fall in soft folds, trimmed in scarlet and gold. Her right hand closes around a pink rose set on a gilded stem; the left presses into the fabric behind her. Two short tails hold her hair, with a small blossom and a gold clip above the brow. The palette stays warm and rosy against the pale porcelain of the skin, and both feet hang free over the cushion's edge.
