Artist, American, 1909 - 2000

The sculpture depicts a woman dressed in period clothing, complete with a wide-brimmed hat atop her head. She is holding a large bouquet of flowers at her side with one arm while the other appears to be positioned behind her. Her attire includes a long, flowing dress with intricate detailing that suggests layered fabric and a tight-fitted bodice with buttons. The sculpture is a monochromatic grey color. Positioned in a manner that is slightly angled, the woman's facial features and posture are clearly visible, with an expression that is neutral and poised. The sculpture stands on a rectangular base.
