Princess in Rose Ball Gown Near Grand Palace

A young woman in a long off-the-shoulder ball gown stands in front of a columned building with triangular pediments and arched windows. Her wavy hair is piled up and decorated with roses and a short veil. She wears a necklace and gloves, and one hand lifts the edge of her wide skirt. The corset bodice has a rose at the center, and leafy garland trim runs along the neckline, sleeves and down the front of the gown, finishing in ruffles at the hem. A bouquet of roses with large leaves sits at her waist, and a single rose with a stem lies on the ground at the lower left. Small bushes grow along the base of the building. Try coloring the roses in several shades of pink and red, then use soft pastels for the gown so the garland detail stands out. The building also works well for talking about columns and arches.
