The image shows an older woman standing with one hand on her hip and the other holding a basket. She has short hair under a wide-brimmed hat and a headscarf. She wears layered, worn clothing and knee-high boots. The background has abstract patterns, and there is text in the lower corner: J. S. Mitchell, 77½ West Bay Street, Jacksonville, Fla.
