Constance Charpentier - A Mother Recovering with the Help of her Children

A woman dressed in a white nightgown, wearing a shawl and a nightcap, has stood up from a bed visible in the background, on the right. As she struggles walking, she is aided by two of her children. The young woman holds a pillow, which she will place on the chair her younger brother is about to bring closer to their mother. The recovering woman’s youngest child, seen on the left with his/her back to the viewer, walks towards the group, while, on the right, another daughter placidly brings a cup of hot beverage.
