This mid-to-late 20th-century oil painting on canvas depicts three seated women surrounded by calla lilies, rendered in a style that pays homage to Mexican Modernism. The central figure is shown in a moment of repose with her head resting on her hand, while the flanking figures are bowed over clusters of the iconic white blooms. The composition utilizes soft, rounded forms and a warm, earth-toned palette to create a sense of quiet labor and dignity. The work is signed "S. Milling" in the lower right corner.
