About MeCarte de visite of a woman taken portrait style. Her hair is styled up with a middle parting; she is wearing earrings but cannot see her hands so her marital status is unclear. She is sitting on a decorated chair and the overall background is blank. Her dress is dark with a white lace collar and brooch. There is also a chain just below her chest fastened on to the dress. On the reverse the photographer's details appear in full.
