  • Description:Ann is on the left wearing a rose dress with white lace collar fastened at the neck by a brooch rimmed in gold. Her right arm is draped by a dark rose shawl. Her nearly black hair is parted in the middle and pulled to the back over her ears. Sally is on the right and wears an off-the-shoulder white dress trimmed with blue at the sleeves and in a sash around her waist. Her right arm rests on Ann's left shoulder, and her hair is light brown, also parted in the middle and pulled back. Both subjects are looking directly at the viewer.
