DescriptionA carte-de-visite portrait of a woman with braided hair turned toward the left of the frame in three-quarter pose. The portrait is collaged with a large round circle filled with smaller circles in shades of green, brown, and red, resembling those found in color-blindness tests. This affixed circle covers the sitter's lower face and chest. Three purple flowers are positioned on top of and throughout the composition. A small circle with shades of pink is located above her head, and a small yellow circle sits at the bottom of the photograph.On View
