Visual Summary

Brief Description

A young woman with abundant reddish-brown curly hair gazes into a hand mirror

Detailed Description

A painting depicts a young woman with long, voluminous, reddish-brown curly hair, shown from the chest up against a dark, muted background. Her head is turned slightly to her right, and she gazes into a dark-framed oval hand mirror held in her left hand. Her skin is fair, and her eyes are light-colored. Her lips are slightly parted. Her right hand is raised, with fingers spread, positioned near the top of her head, seemingly interacting with her hair. She wears a white lace collar with small buttons over a dark garment, possibly black, with a white cuff visible on her right wrist. The abundant curly hair cascades around her shoulders and down her back, filling much of the frame. The lighting highlights her face and the top of her hair.
