About this work

A woman sits in a dark, plain background, dressed in a fancy 19th-century gown. Her black lace bodice has a high neckline, and a gold brooch sits at her chest. One arm rests on a chair, while her other hand holds a small green book. Gold bracelets and rings catch the light, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The painting looks like it was made with careful brushstrokes, focusing on her face and hands. The dark background makes her clothes and jewelry stand out.
