Visual Summary

Brief Description

A young woman in a blue and brown plaid dress holds a concertina, looking forward

Detailed Description

The image features a young woman, shown from the chest up, positioned slightly to the left of center, looking directly forward. She has a light complexion, dark hair parted in the middle, and pulled back, with light-colored ribbons or bows visible on either side of her head, near her ears. Her eyes are dark, and her lips are thin. She wears a blue and brown plaid dress with a fitted, gathered bodice and long sleeves. A white, ruffled collar with a scalloped edge adorns her neckline. A thin, dark cord is visible around her neck. Her left hand, with fingers curled, rests on a small, dark, rectangular musical instrument, which she holds upright against her body. The instrument, resembling a concertina or accordion, has a series of white keys or buttons on its right side. Her right hand is also visible, supporting the instrument from below. The background is a plain, dark color. The overall image has rounded corners.
