Oil painting within a painted oval of a child with short brown hair, seems parted on left. Brown eyes. Shoulders partially revealed, wearing short-sleeved white top with detailed stitching. Elbows and waist are hazy. Background is varying shades of what may have been blue.

Condition Notes
Some cracks especially in white garment child is wearing. Some small pieces missing revealing white underneath. Bubble and crack on right side at level of child's neck. Some other bubbles without cracks.
Seems a cleaning would reveal brighter colors, especially for background.
