In this painting titled La jeunesse et l'Amour-Youthfulness of Love by William Bouguereau a young woman is crossing a stream using the rocks beneath her feet in what appears to be a woodland. She has a cherub balancing  playfully on her shoulders. He appears to be slipping and is holding onto her head and left arm while staring cheekily at her. She is returning his gaze with a look of love and reassurance in her eyes. She is wearing a silky blue green cloak which hangs loosely behind her back and to the left of her suggesting that there is a slight breeze blowing through the woodland. Her breasts also appear to be firm and her nipples are erect suggesting that she may be feeling the chill of the breeze

The above account is my interpretation of the work and should in no way be taken as fact.
