Portrait of a Woman

Amerikanische Malerei 1840–1848, kb. 1845

The image depicts a portrait of a person from the waist up. The person is seated upright, facing slightly to the left with sharp facial features, pronounced eyebrows, blue eyes, and a serious expression. They wear a white headdress with ribbon-like extensions, a dark high-collared garment, and hold a red book in their left hand while their right hand rests on a white cloth. In the background is a framed picture showing a green tree against a muted landscape on a brown wall. The overall color scheme is warm and earthy.
