A sixth plate daguerreotype of an elegant African American woman, posed with dignity and grace. The woman is dressed in a beautifully tailored dress with a high collar and lace detailing, which emphasizes her poised and refined appearance. Her hair is neatly parted in the center and styled in a traditional fashion of the period. She wears hoop earrings and a delicate brooch at her collar, further highlighting her sense of style and sophistication.

The daguerreotype is well-preserved, though there is a noticeable scratch across the image, in person it is a lot less distracting and the image has great overall clarity. Despite this flaw, the details of the woman's attire and facial features remain visible and provide a strong sense of her presence. The image is housed in a full case with a decorative gold mat that frames the photograph.
