This is a close-up portrait of a person with light skin and dark hair pulled back. They’re wearing a dark green dress with a high collar and a light brown bow tied at the neck. A single pearl earring and a small feather tucked into the hair add detail. The soft lighting makes the face glow against the dark background, focusing on the gentle expression. The clothing looks formal but not overly fancy. This photo is held at the Museum of Ethnography.
