Portrait of a Young Woman

Portrait of a Young Woman by Mather Brown. The painting depicts a young woman sitting on a stool with a red cushion, in front of a piano. The woman has fair skin, brown hair with bangs, and wears a white dress with short puffed sleeves, a low neckline, and a striped hem. A white cap with a floral decoration covers her hair. She sits with her right leg crossed over her left, her right foot bare. In her left hand, she holds sheet music; her right hand rests on top of the music. The piano is dark wood with gold accents and an oval plaque on the front. The background is dark. The woman looks directly at the viewer.
