The image shows an upper-body profile of a woman facing left. She has delicate facial features with a prominent nose, a softly-sketched profile, and styled hair in an updo. She is dressed in a gown with puffed sleeves and lace details. The background is dark and circular, contrasting with the woman's lighter tones. Surrounding the portrait are beige borders with handwritten text, including the names "Martha Jefferson Tyler Wagonman," "Miss Wilson," and "Susan."
