Subject is seated and facing three-quarter left with her hands crossed loosely in her lap. The low-cut bodice of her dress is white lace with a filmy black overlay over the right and left sides and a shawl of the same material draped across her upper left arm and right wrist. There is a large red flower ornament centered under the bust-line, and the subject has her head turned to look directly at the viewer.
