A bride, Mary Virginia King, poses for a studio portrait, probably at Willets Point (Queens County), New York. She wears a long wedding dress with draped lace over a box pleated underskirt, long fitted sleeves, a fitted bodice, gathered or layered lace collar ruffles, gloves, and a long veil crowned with blossoms. A long, silk train is pooled on an oriental rug. A bouquet has leaves and stephanotis blossoms.
