Portrait of a woman wearing a dress typical of the canton of Appenzell, Switzerland. She stands in an open doorway with one hand holding the door handle and the other extended out to rest on the doorframe. A painted backdrop behind her shows the interior of a kitchen, including a butter churn. A mirror hangs on the wall next to the door above a side table stacked with dishes.
