Artist, American, born 1934

The image depicts a seated woman from the waist up, with her arms crossed over her torso. She faces the camera directly, with a calm expression on her face. She wears glasses and her hair is dark, parted in the middle, and pulled back. She is dressed in a light-colored short-sleeved blouse with pleated detailing at the front and has a ring on her left hand. The background is a plain wall with horizontal lines, potentially resembling wooden paneling, and is uniformly lit, casting subtle shadows.
