The painting shows a woman with dark, curly hair pulled back, wearing a red dress with a white collar and shawl. The background is dark, with a lighter area to the right. The woman's dress has a low neckline, and the white shawl has a decorative edge. The painting is done in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the folds of the fabric and the woman's features. This portrait is reminiscent of the work of other artists who specialized in realistic portraits, such as James Frothingham.
