In this masterpiece, Cassatt skillfully captures a tender moment between a mother and her child. The woman sits gracefully on an elegant chair, her gaze fixed upon her little one who stands beside her holding a vibrant sunflower. The warm yellow hues of the flower beautifully contrast against the soft colors of their surroundings. The mirror effect adds depth to the composition as it reflects both figures and enhances the sense of intimacy within this domestic scene.
