This painting depicts a woman in a dark green dress with white ruffles on the sleeves and neckline. She is seated, with her hands in her lap, and has dark hair pulled back. The background is dark, with a red table to her right, holding a book and a plant. The woman's expression is neutral, and she is looking directly at the viewer. The painting is done in oil paint, and the colors are muted, with the dark green of the dress standing out. To learn more about the artist who created this portrait, look up Joseph Badger.
