The painting depicts a young child with fair skin and dark hair, adorned with a hairpiece featuring red, blue, and gold elements. The child wears a white dress with lace trim on the neckline and sleeves, and a gold cross on the bodice. A flowing red fabric drapes over the child's left shoulder. The child holds a bouquet of flowers, including white and pink roses, in their hands. The background features a dark area on the left, a blue sky with clouds on the right, and a tree silhouette. The painting is framed in gold. The child is Elizabeth Greenleaf, painted by John Singleton Copley.
