The painting depicts a woman in a gray dress and white hat. She is leaning over, with her left arm raised and flat against a beige stone wall, her left hand positioned above her head. The woman's dress has a maroon stripe around the waist and on the left sleeve. The woman's left leg is visible below her dress and she appears to be barefoot. Behind her to the left, there is a view of green trees and a blue sky with white clouds. To the right of the woman, there is a round decorative opening in the stone wall. The painting is signed near the bottom right corner. The overall color palette of the painting is subdued, with earthy tones dominating. The image presents a serene and contemplative scene. The painting Girl at the Fountain is by William Morris Hunt.
