Black and white photography, inside, photo studio, 1958 Knee piece, sitting, quarter profile on the left - An older, elegant, well-groomed woman, about fifty years old, sits on a black stool, turned obliquely to the left, the left shoulder higher. She turns her head to the right. The view goes up to the right. The knees are beaten one above the other, the right knee above. The arms are close to the body, the forearms are both angled, the right is up, the fingers of the right hand on the left elbow, the left forearm is loosely above the right knee. She smiles kindly, the lips are open and show the top row of white teeth. Prof. Knuth wears a black costume, with a T-neckline and three-quarter sleeves, with wide striped hem. The skirt extends to the knees. The exterior folded inside of the pointed lapels of the jacket and the corners of the collar are designed with white cloth and surrounded in black. Around her neck she wears a short, bright bead necklace. On the right there is a narrow band of gold or silver, a narrow wedding ring on the ring finger and a wider ring with diamonds on the middle finger. On the left she wears a narrow wristwatch and two jewelry rings with stone. The dark blond, curly hair wears Ms. Knuth briefly, with a scabbard on the right, the hair to the left brushed loose. On the left, some of the holes cover the forehead. She has finely drawn eyebrows and wears lipstick. The background is a bright area, the floor is made of dark parquet. Bes. Characteristic: There is no information about the picture in the order book. Probably Mrs Knuth is a professor. Ch. K.
