National Gallery of Art

The image shows a young girl from the chest up. She is positioned with her face turned to the right, looking straight ahead. The girl has a relaxed expression, small nose, and lips. She has long, wavy hair held with a hairpin, wearing a light-colored dress with puffed sleeves and decorative trim. A pearl necklace is around her neck, and she has small earrings. The background is a dark, textured circle framing her profile.
