In this intimate portrait, Mai Thu depicts a tender instant between a mother and child. The artist’s fine brushstrokes convey the serenity of this scene, where the harmony of the flat colours accentuates the peaceful act of reading a letter. The child leaning against the mother and her slightly inclined posture emphasise the gentle atmosphere and the tranquillity of the moment.
