James McNeill Whistler

Black and white etching of a woman sitting down. The woman wears a long dress and a head covering. She sits on a low platform with her head tilted down. The platform is against a back wall with shelves on it that have pots on them. There are two doors, one on the right slightly ajar. The woman appears to be indoors. The background shows a tiled floor and walls. The image is in a rectangular format.
