Description:Three-quarter length rectangle of woman in a light maroon dress and headdress. She has a dark lace shawl. The profile is nearly frontal with more of her right side revealed. Her left hand rests on (a table?) and her right hangs at her side. Light brown curls reach her jawline.
History:Dury copied the head of a Healy portrait and added the knee-length figure for presentation to the White House. This work is a reduced version done for Mrs. Polk.
