This sepia-toned photograph depicts a young woman sitting in a slightly reclined position, facing the left, with her head and torso propped up on pillows against the back of a chair. She has pale skin and long, dark, curly hair flowing down her shoulders. Her eyes are closed, and her mouth appears partially open. She wears a long, light-colored garment and sits with her hands in her lap. Her legs seem to be covered by a long cloth or a blanket, but her knees seem to be bent. The background features a dark textured curtain or wall, with some indistinct objects in the lower right corner. The lighting is soft, illuminating the woman while the rest of the room is in shadow.
