Portrait of Eulabee Dix

Gelatin silver print

National Museum of Women in the Arts

Photographic portrait of a light-skinned adult woman seated and gazing directly at the viewer. She is elegantly dressed in dark clothes and a tall, elaborate bonnet. Rich tonalities pick out the sheen of the fur muff, plush of the velvet coat, and delicate mesh of the veil.
