Visual Summary

Brief Description

Woman in lace cap looks right, beside large vase of colorful flowers on table

Detailed Description

A woman is seated to the right of a large, overflowing vase of flowers, both resting on a table. The woman, shown from the waist up, wears a light brown, long-sleeved garment with ruffles on the front and a dark blue scarf tied around her neck. A white lace cap covers her reddish-brown hair. Her right arm is bent, with her hand resting near her chin, and a ring is visible on her finger. She looks upwards and to the right, her mouth slightly open. To her left, a substantial bouquet of various flowers fills a greenish-brown, textured vase. The flowers are a mix of white, blue, red, pink, yellow, and purple blooms, densely packed and extending high above the vase. On the table to the left of the vase, a clear glass pitcher and a crumpled piece of light-colored fabric are visible. The table is covered with a reddish-brown cloth, and the numbers "1865" are painted on its surface near the bottom center. The background on the left features a greenish-blue patterned wallpaper, while the background on the right, behind the woman, is darker and less distinct, possibly indicating a doorway or window.
