She is seated facing theleft, her head turned almost fully to the spectator, at whomher bright, wide open, deep blue eyes look directly, with theslightest suggestion of an amiable smile which her delicatelycurved ])ink lips confirm. She is shown at three-quarterlength, and wears a plain, cream-white gown of light materialand moderately open neck, which hugs the body nowhere savealong broad bands which finish the elbow sleeves, beyond whichher two rounded arms extend along her lap, her pink fingersinterlocking as the hands meet above her knees.
