I was drawn to this piece because it beautifully captures the special bond between a mother and daughter. There is such tenderness in the way the daughter rests in her mother’s arms, and a quiet contentment in the mother’s expression. To me, it reflects the comfort, trust and security of knowing that someone who loves you is always there. It is a gentle portrayal of love, safety and belonging.
