The image depicts a woman seated in a three-quarter view. She has light skin, delicate facial features with slightly arched eyebrows, and her hair is styled with prominent coils. She is holding a small red book, with her left hand resting against her face. She wears a dark gown with long sleeves, a lace collar, and lace cuffs. She also wears a black cap trimmed with lace and a ribbon in pink, blue, and yellow. The background is deep brown, and she is seated on a red velvet chair with gold studs along the edge.
