The image shows a standing nude woman with a serpent coiled around her arm. She is facing slightly to the left, with her left arm raised. The woman's head is turned to the left, her eyes are focused on the snake, and her mouth is open. She has classical features, including a prominent nose and lips, with curly hair reaching her shoulders. In the background, there is a dark area with a faintly etched "CLEOPATRA" on a rectangular frame. On the right side are circular objects and a fabric piece marked with "1529 RDP." At the lower left is a plain vase, with a chain attached to the frame.
