This image is a portrait showing the upper half of a woman's body, focusing on her profile. The woman is turned to the side, facing right, highlighting her facial features like her pointed nose and rounded chin. Her hair is styled in curls and partially covered by an ornate cap with lace and ribbon detailing. She wears earrings and a necklace, adding elegance. She is dressed in a detailed high-collared dress with lace and pleating. The background is a dark circle, contrasting with her attire. The setting seems to be a framed drawing or engraving with her name, "Mrs. Burke" Elizabeth, written beneath it on a light brown mounting.
