Description
Portrait of a child with red hair kneeling at a table with a crucifix in the background and the hands of a priest just visible, by American-born artist Sir James Jebusa Shannon (1862-1923). Interestingly, Shannon has arranged the girl with her profile framed by a china plate on the wall to give the impression of a halo, suggesting virtue and innocence, while the vase of orange marigolds she is holding provides a bold central blast of color.
