This painting shows a woman in a black dress standing in a room. She is holding a white handkerchief to her face and looking down. The room has a floral rug and a table with flowers on it. The woman's dark dress and the somber colors of the room suggest that she is mourning. The painting is done in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the woman's clothing and the furnishings of the room. The artist who painted this is Ivan Kramskoi.
