The painting depicts a woman sitting on the ground with her back to the viewer. She has dark hair pulled into a bun and wears a two-tone dress, with a dark top and a light-colored bottom. Her right leg is bent, with her foot near her opposite knee. She sits on a green surface with a kettle beside her. A tree branch with pink blossoms arcs across the top right. In the foreground, there are plants and a gray area that could be a rock or shadow. The background of the painting is beige. There are several lines of Chinese characters in black and two red stamps, one in the top-left corner and one in the bottom-left corner.
