It is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA) in Washington, D.C. in the United States.

It is a rare self-portrait by an artist who usually depicted everyday life on the plantations that she lived on in Louisiana.

An African American woman stands in the middle with a blue dress and her hands outstretched with a bouquet of roses.

She faces a cut out, from an exhibition brochure from 1974, that features a photograph of the artist.

Curators at the NMWA interpret the painted woman in the artwork as showing respect to the artist for the success she has gained.
