The image shows a woman standing upright with a solemn expression. She has narrow eyes, a pointed nose, and wears a bonnet covering her hair. She is dressed in period-specific attire including a long gown, a shawl, and gloves. She holds a small object in her left hand by her side. The background is plain, emphasizing the woman. The text above and below the figure identifies her as an "English Gentlewoman" with "Mulier Generosa Anglica" at the bottom.
