The young girl looks like she has been brought to sit on the chair while she was playing in a dusty playground. The innocence, the carelessness and the playfulness of a child is finely depicted in the current portrait of a young tomboyish girl.
Alexei Harlamoff has prominently focused on the girl’s face as we see the natural innocence in the girl’s chubby face and the big eyes. She is looking in vain which makes us more to think about the thoughts she is thinking about. What runs into a child’s mind? Moreover, the deliberate color strokes to create dirty look puts us into the playground of any child. By looking at her we can imagine that she is straightly coming from a playground where her hairs got disordered and clothes got dirty while playing with her friends. Her disordered hair and somewhat dirty clothes hints that she is a playful child. The charm of innocence never gets old. Her spotless little face with pure emotions captivates the viewer’s eyes quickly. The black necklace adds more beauty to the appearance. Though, she doesn’t seem to care about it.
Do you feel like you want to play in that dusty playground again after watching this allegoric portrait? Me, too.
