DescriptionTwo young girls wearing what appear to be nightdresses trimmed with lace lean to the left across a large bouquet of flowers. The flowers include roses, zinnias, and other species. The blond girl's arms are around the brunette girl's neck; she holds a rose in her right hand and looks back over her shoulder. The composition is in an oval frame, surrounded by a double rule.
