All of us shot the comings and goings in this crumbling, once grand apartment building for over an hour. You frame this pair beautifully -- between the headless statue on the lobby landing, and the worn wall that also pays homage to the Cuban Revolution (just beyond the top of your image). Both mother and daughter are oblivious of your camera. their sole concern is getting to the bottom in one piece. The vivid color of the child's dress dominates the scene, the very embodiment of this gallery's title.
