An adult female holds a young child in a staged outdoor setting within Yuzhong District, China. Both individuals are dressed in elaborate costumes and feature glitter on their faces. The adult, positioned on the right, wears a multi-layered silver-toned garment and an ornate metallic headpiece, displaying a slight smile towards the viewer. The child, held frontally in the adult's arms with her arms around the adult's neck, wears a two-piece light purple costume with sheer fabric overlays and a jeweled headpiece with a veil. Both subjects have glitter applied to their upper cheeks. The background consists of a large, rough-hewn stone wall, illuminated by prominent warm yellow light, displaying numerous carved or projected yellow Chinese characters. Below the wall, a calm body of water reflects this yellow light. Darker rock formations are visible in the lower right foreground, and sparse green foliage is present in the upper right. The entire scene is artificially lit with a dominant warm yellow illumination.
