About the work

Staged portrait of a boy and girl dressed up for a wedding scene. They sit on chairs beneath an umbrella decorated with a flower garland. The girl wears a light-colored shawl draped over her head with a flower crown on top, the boy wears a straw hat and a spray of flowers pinned to his lapel, and both hold small bouquets in their laps. Two more children, a young boy standing to the left and a young girl sitting to the right, also pose. The girl holds a doll in her lap and the boy holds a toy bugle in one hand, a horse in the other, and a paper hat on his head. Toys lay scattered across the floor around the children.
