Lavina Draper, Part 2

Hi,
This is a picture of my great grandmother, Lavina Draper.  She is the one on the left.  Would someone be able to improve it?

You are welcome Sparkly....I wonder if one or both were artists as there appears to be what looks like a painting displayed on the chair on the right and also what looks like artwork on the bench on the left.

Hi Carol,

Not sure, possibly.  The other woman in the picture is a friend.  I don’t know anything about her.  I was struck by how beautiful and interesting the backdrop was and hadn’t thought about the artwork.  Thank you for bringing that to my attention.
