Chinatown Balcony
1910

A colorful painting depicting a bustling street scene with a focus on three individuals in the foreground. On the left, a person in a blue apron stands with arms crossed, looking contemplatively to the side. In the center, a child in a pink outfit holds a small object, possibly a toy or a flower. On the right, a person in a blue dress sits at a table, facing away from the viewer and looking towards the child. The background is filled with detailed buildings, balconies adorned with flags and lanterns, and numerous small figures that suggest a lively community or market atmosphere.
