Innocence is being unaware of the darker sides of life and believing that everything and everyone is good.
Innocence can be lost when people learn the truth about life, that bad things happen and everything isn't always happy
-The background looks like snake scales, and snakes are symbolic in the Bible of gaining knowledge and losing innocence, as in the story of Adam and Eve
-The girl covering herself shows she's not innocent, because innocent little kids run around wuthout shame, as did Adam and Eve before the fall
-The woman to the side looks like she's coming to clothe the girl, because non-innocent people know they need clothing to hide their bodies
