A vertically oriented, black-and-white photograph depicts an older woman with a light skin tone. She wears a wide hat with a flower and a fur-collared coat. Numerous pearl necklaces, rings, and bracelets adorn her. Dark makeup lines her eyes and thin lips. Her hands rest near her chest, one holding a cigarette. Before her sit stacked saucers, an ashtray, and a glass. Mirrors and wood paneling appear in the background.
