Grandma or maid?
An old lady taking care of her grandson. With the elderly taking care of the grandchildren, both parents could go to work. The picture used a vertical line as a focus which met the foot of the wall and the ground so that the line wouldn't cut the picture into two halves; the curves presented by the old lady’s swing introduced harmony to the intersecting lines.
