James McNeill Whistler, circa 1873

The image shows a young girl in a full-length portrait. She is standing, with her body slightly turned to the side and her face looking forward towards the viewer. She has long hair that flows down past her shoulders and bangs that frame her forehead. Her facial features appear soft and delicate. She is wearing a long dress that reaches down to her ankles, with detailed fabric and folds emphasized by sketch lines. The background is abstract, with vertical lines adding texture. The image has a sketched appearance, with variations in shading for depth and form. No jewelry or objects are visible in her hands.
