A line drawing of a woman in a bonnet and frilly dress

On cream colored paper, soft gray shading and lightly drawn lines show the head and torso of a woman. She wears a lacy bonnet and a frilly dress with very large shoulders that puff outward and smiles with half closed eyes. She sways slightly to the right, and wearing long dark gloves, gestures to the left, her hands in front of her with her fingers curling downward. Light shading indicates curtains directly behind her and light seems to shine upward at her face.
