Description
Painting of a young woman. 

Engaging directly with the viewer, she wears a blue suit jacket with a white collar and red buttons. The woman wears a red necklace that resembles the buttons on her jacket. Her hair is parted down the middle and fixed in a hairstyle characteristic of the 1940s - half of her hair pulled away from her face and pinned back, the rest curls at the bottom. She appears to be wearing a lot of make-up-- a bold red lip, rouge, and thin eyebrows.
