This painting shows a woman in a white dress and head covering, with dark hair and a serious expression. The background is dark and blurry, with some green visible. The woman's face is the main focus of the painting, with her features rendered in detail. Her eyes are cast downward, and her mouth is set in a firm line. The painting is an example of the work of artist Thomas Lawrence.
