This is one of several studies related to Symphony in Flesh Colour and Pink: Portrait of Mrs Frances Leyland [YMSM 106]. The dress has some rosettes, but there is no train falling from the shoulders, her body is in profile to right, and she turns to look at the viewer, in total contrast to the pose in the oil.
