Estelle Holmes Morrison

Studio portrait of young woman in formal gown. Photo is from almost ankles up. Woman has curly dark hair, probably pulled back, though it could be worn short. Gown looks to be silk, short sleeve, very low neckline, lots of embroidery, as well as lots of beaded embellishments. Woman is also wearing bracelet of some sort on her left hand. Also lots of tucks at the back of dress, not really bustle, but lots of gathering of material. Inscription below photo on mount reads, in handwriting, “Estelle Holmes Morrison.”
