The painting depicts a woman with fair skin and brown hair pulled back, wearing a white top with gold trim and a green and gold draped garment. A gold band is on her head, and a gold band encircles her right upper arm. She is sitting at a stone table with her right forearm resting on it, holding an open scroll with both hands. Her left hand holds a long, thin, tapered object with a rounded end. The background is a mottled green and gray color. The Greek text "ΚΑΛΛΙΟΠΗ" is in the upper left corner.
