Portrait of a Man and Woman

Mrs. R. Geer

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a seated couple. The woman is on the left, facing the man, with her hands on her lap. She wears a long, striped dress and has styled hair. The man sits on the right with his legs crossed. He has a beard and mustache, and wears a dark suit with a waistcoat. They sit on vintage chairs against a textured backdrop, with a tiled floor.
