The woman, dressed in a green and gold outfit, stands on the balcony, looking down at the man. The building features blue walls with white and red trim, and a balcony with a white railing. A row of planters with flowers lines the bottom of the image. The background shows a dark sky with swirling clouds and rain. The frame around the painting is red.
