The image depicts a figure playing a flute. The person is seated in a reclining position and shown from head to feet. They hold the flute to their lips, with their head turned slightly to the right. The person's facial features appear detailed, with calm eyes and a serene expression. They have long hair parted in the middle that flows down past their shoulders. The person wears a flowing robe with long sleeves, suggesting movement. Behind them is a decorated urn with a twisted stem and floral motifs. In the lower part of the image, a celestial globe decorated with stars is visible, in front of stylized hills. The scene is framed with a simple border.
