Photograph of the painting "Oriental Flower Girl" by Nathaldi Siehel, depicting a western woman in Japanese robes with a basket of flowers, [s.d.]. The woman stands at center, her legs bound closely together by the skirt of the robe, which is decorated with a floral pattern. Long, billowing sleeves drape down to the mid-forearm at each side, where the left arm is held at the hip and the right hand holds the edge of a metal plate on which flowers have been placed. To the left, a small table supports a cloisonne vase. Below, a few blossoms from the plate have fallen onto the patterned rug which covers the floor. The womans hair is dark, curly and cut short. Hoop earrings hang from her ears. Her eye makeup is heavy.
