Photogravure of Mary Howe (née Curzon), Viscountess Curzon. In this three quarter length portrait, Viscountess Curzon is seated. She faces the camera, her body angled to the left. She wears gloves, a high neck dress, a light coloured coat trimmed with feathers and a wide-brimmed straw hat, decorated with feathers of a similar style, likely ostrich feathers.
The accompanying caption describes Viscountess Curzon as "one of the most lovely women in society to-day and very popular. She has great musical talent and is keenly interested in this branch of the "Fine Arts"."Provenance
