A portrait of Mrs Gilman, the artist's mother, seen from the left-hand side, as she is seated in a large wicker chair in her sitting room. She is leaning back reading a book, and behind her can be seen various paintings on the walls, and a chest of drawers with vases and bowls placed on top of it. The dark blue of her long dress and blue-toned background dominate the colour scheme of the painting, but are alleviated by the bright patterns of the carpet, the cushions of her chair, and the chest of drawers.
