Artist, American, born 1934

The image displays the reflection of a person captured in a large window pane. The individual is visible from the chest up, standing upright. Their face is partially shadowed, with short and neatly combed hair. They are wearing a light-colored, possibly striped shirt, with a shoulder strap. No jewelry is visible. The background shows the sky with some clouds. The window frame is thick wood, creating a clear division between the person's reflection and the outdoor scene.
