The sculpture is a bust of a person with an elaborate hairstyle. The individual has finely carved, wavy hair gathered neatly at the back. The sculpture is made from white marble. The face of the sculpture displays delicate features, with a straight gaze and a subtle expression. The neck is elongated, and the bust is placed on a simple, rounded pedestal that supports the upper portion of the sculpture.

Possibly Lady Louisa Bingham
