The image shows a chess piece, specifically the Queen, created by an unknown artist. The chess piece is made of ivory and features a woman wearing a crown-like hairdo. She has a neutral expression on her face, with her eyes cast slightly downward. Her attire consists of a long dress adorned with intricate designs and patterns. The dress has a high neckline and long sleeves. She holds an object resembling a scepter in her right hand and another object in her left hand. The base of the chess piece is round and flat, with a decorative design around its edge. The background of the image transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom.
