Description
Photographic portrait of a woman painting a dress being worn by another woman, [s.d.]. The painter is seated at right while the other woman stands at left. The painter is sitting in a very stylized pose with her brush high in the air as she looks to the left. The other woman is looking at the viewer. The dress being painted is a dark garment with a light-shawl. Large spots are visible on the shawl. The picture file card describes the photo as an "eccentric photo".
