Gerda is standing in the center of the palace surrounded by luxurious objects, paintings, furniture and tapestries. Her eyes are wide with amazement at the magnificence of her surroundings as she stands there in her simple, yet elegant, dress. She is dwarfed by the grandeur of the palace, yet at the same time appears to be entirely at peace with the situation. The Queen is standing nearby, dressed in a magnificent gown and looking upon Gerda with a gentle and comforting smile.
When coloring this picture, use shades of gold and purple to create a royal and majestic feel. For Gerda’s dress, you could use deep forest green for the dress and creamy white for the lace. Make the scenery around her vibrant and alive by incorporating deep reds and oranges for the carpets and wall hangings. To add a touch of realism, use various shades of brown, green and blue for the furniture and other decorations.
