She is wearing a dark long-sleeved top and a darker skirt, and mary jane-style shoes. Her hair appears grey and seems to be pulled back into a bun or similar on the crown of her head. Behind her on the left is a paling fence and on the right is a brush-type fence. In the background is a building and a few parked vehicles. There are power lines.
