This painting shows a woman in a white dress with a full skirt and a lace-trimmed bodice. She is standing in front of a dark background, and her right hand is resting on a table with a vase of flowers. The woman's dark hair is pulled back, and she is looking down at something in her left hand. The woman's dress is detailed, with a floral brooch at her neckline and a lace shawl draped over her shoulders. The overall effect of the painting is one of quiet elegance. The artist who painted this portrait is Prilidiano Pueyrredón.
