A vertically oriented lithograph on tan paper depicts a woman from the chest up, facing our right. Light, curly hair is tucked under a large, ruffled bonnet. She looks forward with a closed mouth, her features shaded with fine, sketchy lines. Her hands are clasped together at her chest. To our left, "Will R 94" is inscribed. Soft, dark strokes define her form against the plain, textured paper.
