A small girl in a blue dress with a white lace collar stands with her head bowed, holding the string of a yellow balloon that has sunk to the floor beside her. The quiet, downcast pose and the muted grey background give the scene a wistful mood, while the bright balloon and blue dress carry the eye through the composition. Pavel Filin builds the child with loose, textured brushwork in this original oil painting. Available to view at Art Gallery Teplice.
