The artwork, created in 1774, depicts a group of young girls adorned in their finest white caps, or "coiffes blanches," a traditional headgear for French girls during this time. The girls, dressed in simple yet elegant clothing, gather together in a rustic setting, their faces filled with youthful curiosity and delight.
