Portrait of Lady Elisabeth Feilding, standing, wearing a bonnet and holding a parasol over her head.

There is a pencil notation in the left margin, probably made by Talbot to indicate which side of the paper was sensitized. The paper has a circular blindstamp in the upper left corner that is illegible.

The verso is blank.
