A 10-year-old girl with a light brown bob and wide hazel eyes, melancholic but calm, kneels before a simple gray granite tombstone holding a small wooden box against her chest; she wears a mustard coat and gazes into the open box containing an old photo and a small notebook while whispering to the grave; behind her stands her mother, about 35, brown hair in a bun, tired yet gentle face, in a navy raincoat with one hand on the girl's left shoulder; a yellow spray of flowers rests before the stone and fresh dark soil surrounds the slab; the quiet cemetery has a light gravel path, wet-leaved trees with a few birds and visible raindrops, soft rainy-afternoon light; the scene is intimate and centered, warm yellow and brown tones for the figures contrasting with the gray-green background.
