The image shows a person standing in a full-body frontal pose. The person has a serene expression, mainly covered hair by a headdress resembling a veil or hood. They wear a colorful robe and hold a book in one hand and a cross in the other. A halo surrounds their head with the words "Sancta Brigitta." Decorative elements, including leaves and emblems, are present beside and below the person. The background has blue horizontal stripes on a light tan surface, enclosed within a border.
