| Description: | Bust-length three-quarters right profile of a mature woman with white hair worn in short loose curls. She wears a pearl necklace and a slate blue shoulderless dress with a sheer drape around her shoulders. The suggestion of a red chair or sofa and a green plant are on the left side of the canvas. |
| History of Work: | Even though it is beyond the cut-off date (1941) for the current study, this work was included due to the importance of the subject and the artist. Dudley was a key person in the ratification of the 19th amendment allowing women suffrage. Davis was a prominent artist, working primarily in the 1950s in Middle Tennessee. |
