This oval photograph features a seated woman, her body turned slightly to the right and her face turned towards us. She has pale skin, arched eyebrows, and thin lips with a hint of a smile. Her dark hair is styled up with pale blue flower decorations around her ears, and she wears a black dress with a white collar and a dark blue brooch. Her hands are placed on her lap, and she sits on a chair with a cushioned green backrest. On the right is a small side table covered with a green cloth that her left arm rests on top of. A red curtain is visible in the background to the right, and the background on the left is flat gray. The oval photograph is surrounded by a beige border.
