This portrait painting depicts a woman with dark, curly hair and brown eyes. She wears a white bonnet with ruffles and a white shawl over a black dress, adorned with a blue and red patterned trim. Her right hand is covered by a brown glove, and she appears to be holding something, possibly a book or a fan. The woman's attire and hairstyle suggest an older style, possibly from the early 19th century. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to focus attention on the subject. The painting is held at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston. Next, you might want to explore more works by Samuel Finley Breese Morse.
