Three-quarter-length portrait of an elderly woman seated in a painted chair (the chair's ear is visible at far left) before a wall with a red curtain drawn to reveal a window, at right, through which can be seen a sunset painted in peach pink hues. The woman—who gazes directly at the viewer—wears a black dress with white trimmed sleeves, full-length black gloves, and a diaphanous white linen cap and kerchief. Her right arm rests on a large family Bible. She hold holds a pair of spectacles in her right hand, suggesting that she has just been reading the Scripture.
