Artist, French, 1837 - 1911

The image shows a person seated with their upper body visible. The individual is slightly turned to the left, with their head bowed and eyes closed or lowered. Their face has soft features, and they are wearing a hood or fabric covering their head and neck. The person is dressed in loose, flowing fabric with many folds. Their hand rests on their lap, and a book is beside them. The background has a cross-hatched texture, suggesting a wall and possibly a window or panel section behind them.
