Oval portrait of a woman with dark hair, pearl necklace, white dress, and pink rose
This oval-shaped portrait depicts a woman, shown from the chest up, set against a dark, plain background. Her head is slightly turned, and she gazes directly forward. She has fair skin, dark eyes, and dark eyebrows, with a small nose and slightly parted red lips. Her dark brown hair is styled high on her head, with some strands visible near her ears. A subtle, light-colored band or ornament is visible in her hair. Around her neck, she wears a single strand of small, round, white pearls. She is dressed in a cream or off-white gown with a low, wide neckline, revealing her upper chest. The fabric of her dress features soft folds and drapes. Pinned to the left side of her chest is a single pink rose with two green leaves. Below the rose, elements of blue and gold fabric or ribbons are visible, possibly part of a sash or decorative trim. The dark background provides a strong contrast to her light skin and attire.
