The Turtle Dove | Sophie Gengembre Anderson | 19th Century

A fair-haired child holds a small dove against a deep violet dress, her hands enclosing the bird with a gentle, protective gesture. Anderson gives particular attention to the contrast between soft curls, smooth skin, velvet folds and patterned plumage. Warm shadows surround the closely framed figure, keeping the face and hands prominent. The child’s direct gaze lends the scene a quiet gravity that balances the tenderness of its subject.
