This is a detailed painting of a brown long-sleeved gown with buttons down the front and pleated details at the cuffs and hemline. The fabric appears textured, with gathering and bunching in the lower part of the skirt, along with a decorative pocket on the left side. The pocket and hem of the dress have dark red highlights. To the right side of this depiction, there is a line drawing of the back view of the dress. The signature "L Nelson" is present at the bottom-right corner of the painting. The background is off-white paper.
