The image is a portrait of a woman wearing historical regional attire. She is standing in a relaxed position with one hand holding a piece of fabric. The woman has an oval-shaped face, small mouth, and wide eyes. She wears a tall, pointed hat, a long-sleeved dress with a voluminous skirt, a structured bodice with vertical stripes, and a dark, possibly fur-lined shawl. The background is minimal and neutral. The text on the drawing says "Ein Basler Jung frau" and "Virgo Basiliensis".
