The internet seems to agree. Her image has gone viral after it was shared on Instagram a week ago by Mofe Bamuyiwa, a Nigerian photographer.

It gained 16,000 likes within a short time of it being posted. It has now amassed 27, 796 likes.

J A R E @the_j3_sisters CHILDREN ARE A GIFT FROM HEAVEN. I’m pretty excited and elated about my new style of child portraiture . Before I thought of Photographing the @the_j3_sisters , I have had frivolous ideas of how I can make artsy portraits of kids And do away from the norm . The opportunity came and I had to take a bold step to express my ideas of how I want to take portraits of kids. I want to portray the interception between her childhood and adulthood so both stay timeless !

Jare has been called “the new Barbie,” “absolutely stunning” and “doll-like.”

The picture highlights Jare’s astounding attributes – piercing bright eyes, smooth chocolate skin, bountiful hair and mature pose.

Bamuyiwa expressed, “I could have made her smile and make her laugh out loud but I put her in their natural moments for us to see through their eyes!”

BEAUTIFUL ART WORK OF J O M I of the @the_j3_sisters The elder sister of J A R E When I was a child I always wanted to wear my Mum’s shoes , cloths and do all she did as a woman . I wasn’t afraid of being that woman , though I wasn’t aware , nothing scared me of the cost it would take to be a woman . “I WAS FEARLESS AS A CHILD “ I’m sure every girl has gone through this stage and can totally relate . Meeting Jomi of the @the_j3_sisters Was more inspiring . Asides that she is bright and beautiful , she is very coordinated and every pose directed , she did better than I told her to do . She definitely has buttressed and given me more proof that every little girl dreams of being a woman . I guess was looking for a platform to showcase her inner woman !!! Photography is my little way of expressing my thoughts than in words and so I am not the best curator of my work . Be inspired #bmbstudio #artsy #artwork #photography #kidsphotography #childphotographer #love #girl #mofebamuyiwa

The attention garnered by Jare has inspired her mother to create an Instagram page named “The J3 Sisters.” Jare’s two sisters are also being praised for their prominent features.

Bamuyiwa commented, “All I want is for everyone to see Jare’s powerful potential. … I want the photo to speak to her when she has reached her adulthood.”
