DescriptionA young mother, wearing a cloak and robes sits proudly with her children, holding a baby in one arm and embracing a small child with her other; an older child sits at her feet. All are swaddled in blankets and the children are relaxed in the presence of their mother. The background, a neutral and darker tone, frames the scene with a gnarled tree trunk that leans to the left, enshrining the family.On View
