She looks to the left and raises her right hand above a dog. The dog faces towards the Duchess and sits on his back legs, as if begging. A copy, in carbon, after a carte-de-visite probably taken by J. de Mouxy in 1864 (see National Archives, COPY 1/6/196 for the form by de Mouxy registering copyright for the photograph).
