The image depicts a full-length profile view of a person standing and facing left. They have facial features in profile, including a nose and lips, with long hair flowing down their shoulders. The person wears an elaborate headdress with large, colorful feathers. Their outfit includes a green top, red draped fabric with gold trim around the waist, and they hold an object resembling a bundle and a sign saying "FINE CIGARS." They are barefoot on a small, gray platform, in front of a plain, light-colored background.
