Photograph of a full length portrait of a woman sitter, likely to be Countess Apponyi. The sitter stands, facing three-quarters towards the left and leaning against a plinth located on the left. She turns her head towards the right and gazes downwards. She holds her hands together, positioning them on the plinth. She poses in front of a painted backdrop depicting a landscape scene.
