An emotional and impactful painting of a beautiful young African girl, with black skin and tears in her eyes, dressed like a princess in typical African clothes. She sits on a wooden throne, with a colorful capulana wrapped around her body, showing her royal status. Her bust is covered with an embroidered blouse, and her neck is adorned with traditional beaded necklaces. Her face expresses sadness and anguish, as tears stream down her cheeks. In front, a ceramic cup is shown in the foreground, with a steaming, aromatic drink inside. The image conveys a sense of pain and desolation, with the princess crying in silence, while the cup represents the need for comfort and healing. The scene is lit by a soft, welcoming light, which highlights the contrast between the beauty of the costume and the princess's deep sadness.
