The image shows an elderly African-American woman standing in front of a brick wall. She is wearing a long-sleeved purple dress with a high neckline and a pleated skirt. The dress has a gold necklace and earrings, and she is also wearing a purple turban on her head. She has a big smile on her face and is looking directly at the camera. The woman appears to be in her late 60s or early 70s. The brick wall behind her is old and weathered, and there is a window with wooden shutters on the left side of the image.
