Black and white portrait painting of a woman. The woman has dark hair pulled back into a bun on top of her head, with loose curls framing her face. She wears a dark-colored dress with a low neckline and a shawl or cape draped over her shoulders. The dress appears to be made of a shiny fabric, possibly satin or silk, and has a subtle pattern of small dots or sparkles. The background of the painting is dark and plain. The woman looks towards the right.
