The image shows a side profile of a woman from the upper chest up. She is facing left with her body angled in the same direction. Her facial features are well-defined, with a prominent nose and rounded lips. Her hair is styled in an updo with curls and ringlets framing her face. She is wearing a garment with a wide neck, possibly a dress or blouse, with decorative stitching along the neckline and sleeves. There are no visible jewelry or objects. The background is a simple, circular textured frame contrasting with blank space. At the bottom is the name "Miss Wilson" written in cursive script.
