Woman with Broom and Little Girl n.d.

"Woman with Broom and Little Girl" is a charming illustration by English artist Kate Greenaway, known for her delicate depictions of children. The image, housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, shows a young woman in a long blue dress and a straw hat, holding a broom while a little girl in a pink dress throws leaves into a basket. The scene captures the innocence of childhood and the simple pleasures of nature, typical of Greenaway's artistic style. The use of watercolor and delicate lines gives the illustration a gentle and nostalgic feel. The artwork exemplifies Greenaway's contributions to the Victorian art movement, which emphasized sentimental themes and domestic life.
