Artist, French, 1869 - 1954

The image shows a person from the waist up, leaning forward with their elbows on a surface. The person is looking directly at the viewer, resting their chin on one hand while the other hand clasps the wrist. Their facial expression is neutral with dark eyes and lips, and their hair is styled in smooth, dark waves. They are wearing a garment with a bold, abstract pattern and a large collar. A ring is visible on the fingers of the hand supporting their chin. The background is decorated with floral patterns that match the design of the vase of flowers positioned beside the person.
