Elizabeth Virginia Laning Bradner Smith (Mrs. George Cotton Smith)

Amerikanische Malerei 1904–1911, 1908

The painting is of an older woman from the waist up, her body slightly turned to the left and her head facing us. She has pale skin with soft lines, rosy cheeks, deep-set eyes, thin eyebrows, and thin red lips in a neutral expression. Her hair is short and wavy, colored in a soft grayish white. She is wearing a dark dress, contrasting with a light, frilly collar at the neck, where a round, dark pendant set in gold rests. The background is a dark, muted color. The brushstrokes in the painting are visible.
