Oil on canvas. 19th-century English School.
Half-length portrait of a lady sitting at a window overlooking a landscape of an English countryside. The lady wears a sober, almost severe, black dress, yet lightened and embellished with refined lace and frills. A few, yet significant, jewels can be glimpsed among the lace, worn without ostentation; the lace veil on her head is adorned with small white flowers.
The lady holds her spectacles and a lace-edged handkerchief in her lap, held in her hands.
The painting is still on its original canvas.
It is presented in an early 20th-century frame.
A few, yet significant, jewels can be glimpsed.
