Did You Know?

Members of Ribot's family are the likely models for many of his figure compositions, in which the subjects engage in humble activities, such as preparing meals or gathering in groups to read to each other.
A vertically oriented oil painting depicts a young girl standing centrally and looking at us. She has a light skin tone and wears a white cap and long white apron over a dark dress with white sleeves. Her hand to our left holds a metal can. A cat sits at her feet, and a brown and white dog stands on our right. Light from our top left illuminates her against the dark background.
