She wears a necklace, a wrist watch on her right wrist, and a full-length, full-skirt light-colored evening gown with puffed sleeves, a sweetheart neckline and a wide waistband. She wears light-colored open-toed shoes. An opened piece of music is on the piano. A picture of a palm-lined street is on the wall above the piano. A floor lamp behind her is mostly obscured. There is an upholstered chair behind and to the left of her.
