This is a black and white portrait of a woman shown in profile from the shoulders up. The woman is facing to the viewer's right, with her head slightly turned to fully show her facial features. Her nose, chin, and cheekbones are visible. She is wearing a cap or bonnet that gathers at the back of her head and a garment with a high collar. A shawl is draped over her shoulders. The background is a plain, dark circular field. Handwritten text at the bottom reads "Mme. Ash."
