Brief Description

Half-length portrait of a woman in a dark dress, pearls, holding a white feather

Detailed Description

A half-length portrait depicts a woman with light skin and long, dark brown curly hair, which falls over her shoulders. She looks directly forward with a neutral expression. A delicate gold-colored band or net adorns the top of her head. She wears a single strand pearl necklace and long, dangling pearl earrings. Her dark, possibly black or deep green, dress features puffed sleeves and a low neckline, revealing a white lace or embroidered undergarment. A small, ornate brooch is pinned to the center of her chest. Her hands are clasped in front of her, resting at waist level. On her left wrist, a white lace cuff is visible, and she wears multiple strands of pearl bracelets on both wrists. In her clasped hands, she holds a large, white feather and a string of pearls. The background is a plain, dark, reddish-brown color, which appears darker than her skin and the white elements of her attire.
