This lithograph shows a woman in a fancy dress standing near a window. Her hat has big feathers. The background is simple, just dark shapes. The print uses soft, smoky lines. It feels quiet and thoughtful. You can almost hear the stillness. Compare it to Whistler’s other work, like *The Peacock Room*. See it at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
