An overdress of sheer material is hemmed with a double line of white rosettes with pink roses in the center. She wears white shoes and a white hat with a full brim. The hat is adorned with white ribbon and two or three large white feathers. She sits on a red, rectangular bench with gold legs, holding a fan.
