Description
Two women are depicted. The woman on the left faces away from the viewer and wears a green bonnet, a green and black striped dress, and a black, green and red shawl. The shawl has a black background with wide red edging, and has large red and green plant designs. The woman on the right wears a white lace cap with a red flower and green leaves, and red and green trimming at the hem. Her dress is light blue with long narrow sleeves. The fabric is patterned in flowers and sprigs of leaves. Her under-dress is white and pink lace in tiers, with pink ribbons at each tier. The lapels, cuffs, and skirt front are edged with pink and gray stripes, possibly also of lace. She holds open a door for the first woman.
