About this work

The painting depicts a woman in a plaid dress and jacket, with a matching hat. The woman is shown in profile, facing to the right. She has short hair and is wearing high heels. To her right is a smaller drawing of the back of the dress. The background of the painting is a light beige color. The overall style of the painting is simple and elegant, with clean lines and minimal details. The use of plaid and the woman's attire suggest a mid-20th-century setting.
