"Portrait of a Child, Full Length, in a White Dress, Ruff Collar and Lace Cap, Holding a Basket of Cherries, Standing Beside a Dog" is a significant work by the Dutch Golden Age painter Wybrand Simonsz. de Geest. This painting is an exemplary piece of 17th-century portraiture that showcases the artist's skill in capturing the innocence and elegance of childhood. Wybrand Simonsz. de Geest, also known as "the Frisian Pallas" for his artistic prowess, was renowned for his portraits of the European nobility and his ability to imbue his subjects with a sense of presence and character.

The painting depicts a young child, rendered with meticulous attention to detail, standing in a poised yet relaxed posture. The child is dressed in a white dress with a ruff collar and a lace cap, which were typical of the high-status fashion of the period. The inclusion of a basket of cherries held by the child adds a layer of symbolism, often representing the fleeting nature of childhood and the sweetness of youth. The presence of the dog at the child's side not only serves as a symbol of loyalty and protection but also contributes to the narrative of the painting, suggesting the child's status and the companionship between the child and the animal.

The artwork is notable for its fine execution, the harmonious composition, and the use of light and shadow, which highlight the textures of the fabrics and the cherility of the child's skin. De Geest's talent for portraiture is evident in the lifelike representation and the emotional resonance of the image.

While the exact date of creation is not specified, the painting is a testament to the cultural and artistic achievements of the Dutch Golden Age. It provides insight into the societal values and aesthetics of the time, particularly in relation to childhood, wealth, and social status. The painting remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Wybrand Simonsz. de Geest and continues to be studied for its artistic merit and historical significance.
