This is one tired sitter - slumping in spite of that corset. Poor baby...
But certainly a well done and sensitive portrait - thanks for sharing it.

Oops - the subject is - composition? sorry for getting off topic. The artist uses those folds in the background rather nicely to keep an interesting shape in the middle of the painting and to not let that diagonal line of the body become too distracting.
