The image depicts a person from the waist up, facing forward with their upper body slightly turned to the left. The individual has curly hair falling around the shoulders, and is wearing elaborate clothing with lace and embroidery details. They hold a bouquet of flowers in one hand and gesture with the other. In the background, there is a large urn of flowers on a table beside the person, as well as architectural elements and a cloudy sky.
