Illustration with a design for a girl's dress, part of the 61st issue of the "Journal des dames et des modes", published in Paris on February 1, 1914. The illustration features a girl with a blue crepe dress with patches of white fabric with blue floral patterns, offering sweets from a white plate to her mother and sibling. The bother sits on a green-and-black striped chair, wearing a light gray draped dress with semi-abstract flowers, a child seating on her lap, wearing a white dress and white strap shoes. A black pillow with yellow and red semi-abstract leaves lies on the floor beside them, and a brown dog plays with a black ball near them. The walls of the room are colored with light blue and decorated with white stripes with strips of blue shuttle motifs, and hold several small, semi-abstract paintings and a blue bowl with fruits (pears, peaches, apples and grapes).
