From the Getty Museum record

Portrait of a woman wearing a dress and lace fan hat typical of the canton of Appenzell, Switzerland. She stands on a socky slope surrounded by plants, in front of a backdrop painted with a small house in front of the rock face of a mountain. She rests one hand on her hip and holds the handle of a farming tool, possibly a rake.
