Description: 
The photograph shows Nevart Utidjian (1895-1976) standing in front of a train. She is wearing a floor-length skirt with many folds, made from a dark, heavy looking material. She is also wearing a white, long-sleeved blouse with puffed sleeves and a high collar. Encircling her waist is a wide belt, and on her head an impressive large-brimmed and richly decorated hat. Her hair is worn high on top. In her right hand she is holding a light parasol and in the left several papers and a leather bag. The whole appearance is typical of the fashion of the 1930s.
