Portrait photograph of Helena Leipziger

Full-figure portrait of Helena Lepiziger. A woman stands on the dance floor in front of the restaurant building. Her cheerful, smiling face expresses joy and contentment. He has short, naturally wavy hair combed to the left side. She is dressed in a dark, fitted dress with darts, ending below the knees. Long sleeves with ruffled buffets at the shoulders taper from the elbows to the wrists. She has a light-coloured, embellished with floral motifs, collar tied under her neck. She is wearing a belt with a metal buckle around her waist. On her feet, she has black high-heeled shoes and dark socks. A bracelet can be seen on the right wrist, a watch on the left. In the background, there are wooden chairs and restaurant tables where guests sit and stand and a section of the building with a glass wall.

On the reverse of the photograph is a handwritten, partly illegible inscription in pencil, “I love you and I will never forget you, until my death I will remember these moments so sweetly spent with you. To an unforgettable husband, wife Helutka [...].” The photograph is a vertical rectangle with serrated edges. It was made in black and white.
