Detailed Description
A full-length image shows a woman in a yellow gown, standing in profile and facing left within a garden setting. Her fair skin and light hair are visible, with her hair styled in an updo adorned with white feathers or ornaments. She wears pearl earrings and a multi-strand pearl necklace. Her off-the-shoulder gown features white lace trim on the sleeves and bodice. The voluminous yellow skirt is gathered and draped, revealing a white underskirt with blue trim and black bows. A long train of yellow fabric extends behind her. She wears black gloves on her hands. The ground beneath her is a light brown path. The background is a lush landscape with tall green trees and bushes. On the right, flowering plants with purple and white blossoms are visible. To the left, a distant landscape features a body of water under a light blue sky with soft clouds.
