Mrs. Sylvanus D. Lewis (Estelle Anna Blanche Robinson)

Amerikanische Grafik 1837–1850, 1848–1856

The image is a sketch of a woman depicted from the waist up, seated with her body slightly turned to the left. Her facial features show a calm expression with a slightly upturned gaze, having softly defined eyes and a delicate nose. The woman's hair is styled in loose curls that fall around her shoulders. She is dressed in an off-the-shoulder gown with a patterned trim. The fabric appears to gather around her arms and torso, indicated by the shaded folds. The background of the image is plain.
