Description: Princess Dashkova shown in half length and is seen turned to the right. She has grey hair, a ruddy complexion. She wears the Russian court dress of a lady-in-waiting: a white undergown with diaphanous pleated sleeves and lace trim beneath a sleeveless robe of stiff blue satin with gold embroidery. Across her bodice hangs the red moire sash of the Order of St. Catherine. The star of the order is pinned to her gown, together with a diamond-studded lady-in-waiting pin set with a miniature portrait of the empress.
