A low-resolution black and white portrait of physicist Esther Conwell. She is seen from the shoulders up, with her head slightly turned to her left to face the camera. She is wearing a white collared blouse, a pair of glasses with cat eye frames, and a pearl necklace. Her hair is short and she has a very slight smile.
