Semi-realistic portraits of a veiled woman in traditional Egyptian clothing. In the portrait on the left, she is sitting contemplatively, her hands entwined in her lap, looking off to the side thoughtfully. In the portrait on the right, she is holding a baby in her arms, lifting the fabric from above them to give them a loving smile.
