1884 (ca.), Berthe Morisot, Woman and Child in a Garden -- National Gallery of Scotland (Edinburgh)

From the museum label: This probably belongs to a series of works showing the artist's daughter, Julie Manet, and a nurse or female companion. The composition appears to imitate the natural focus of the eye, becoming more sketch-like and indistinct towards the periphery. Morisot spent the summers of 1880 to 1884 at a house in Bougival, north-west of Paris, and also painted frequently in the Bois de Boulogne.
