Sewing

An adolescent girl sits on a stone ledge, her body angled to the right with one leg drawn up and the other resting, barefoot, while she holds a piece of fabric as if sewing. Her pale skin and white blouse are softly lit, contrasted by a dark blue skirt and a warm gold drapery across her lap, set against a neutral, weathered background. The painting reflects Bouguereau’s polished Academic realism, with precise contours, smooth transitions in skin tone, and a calm, contemplative mood.
