The image depicts a painted full-length figure standing upright. The person has delicate facial features, long dark hair, and wears layered clothing with a crown on their head. They hold a palm leaf in one hand. The ornate oval frame features floral and scroll designs at the top. In the background, there is a small kneeling figure with a halo in front of a building or shrine, with rolling hills and clouds visible. The scene is set against a white background.
