This photo shows artist Ruth Merrill sitting on a bed, one leg underneath and the other dangling over the bed, with an open parasol resting behind her. Three small paintings are tacked onto a large wooden board, which also rests at the head of the bed; she is holding a paint pallet and is 'touching up' the upper left painting that appears to be a fashion design. A stuffed toy monkey hangs from the doorframe.
