An oil portrait depicts a woman from the chest up, turned slightly to our left with her dark eyes looking at us. She has light skin tone and wears a thick, brown fur wrap over her shoulders. Her dark brown hair is parted in the middle with ringlets at her temples, and her mouth is set in a line. Light from the top left illuminates her face against a dark brown, textured background.
