This painting shows a woman wearing a headdress with peacock feathers and a colorful dress. She's holding her right hand to her chest, and she's wearing a ring and an armband. The woman is standing in front of a wall with columns. The painting uses a lot of colors, especially reds, greens, and purples. The woman's dress and headdress are very detailed, with many different colors and patterns. If you like this painting, you might also want to look at other works by Mary Elizabeth Tripe.
