DescriptionThe image depicts a standing female figure in a garden of gladioli; the figure is turned to the left corner of the support so that she is in three-quarter profile. The figure is clothed in a green short sleeved V-neck dress with buttons down the front; the figure's brunette hair is styled up on the back of her head and she wears a green hat with a wide brim. The figure reaches her right arm out to grasp a gladiolus stem with her hand; the background on the left has a larger vine or plant that fills the space.
