Description

A toddler with dark curly hair stands in a studio, looking up and holding a berimbau, a single-stringed percussion instrument from Brazil. The child is wearing a beige, textured jumpsuit with overalls straps. The berimbau is made of a long, curved wooden bow with a gourd attached near the bottom and a string running from top to bottom. The child is holding a thin stick, presumably to strike the string. The background is a solid peach color, and there is a shadow cast to the right of the child. The lighting is soft and even, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
