Points of interest
  • She wears a silk dress with a great deal of lace and a jet brooch and cameo brooch.
  • She has a watch chain.
  • Her right hand shows swollen joints which may indicate arthritis.
  • She has apparently lost her teeth, making her appear older than she is; she may be in her 60s.
