The Orphan


Inside a church, with a wooden bench resting against the wall beneath a painting, an elderly woman wearing a coat and a woolen hat, with a stern expression, is shown in profile facing left. She kneels in prayer, holding a prayer book. Behind her, seated on the bench in a three‑quarter view, with her head leaning on the woman’s shoulder, is a girl wrapped in a cloak, with branches placed beside her on the bench.
