In the artwork, a young girl is depicted, adorned in an elegant ensemble consisting of a prominent, wide-brimmed hat and a delicate dress, both rendered in soft whites and creams. Her direct gaze meets the viewer in a penetrating and solemn manner. The details of her attire suggest an air of refinement and innocence, further emphasized by the soft and fluid brushstrokes typical of Sargent’s style. The background is kept muted and understated, allowing the figure of Marian (Madge) Roller to remain the central focal point of the portrait.
