The image shows a woman seated in a three-quarter view, with her right hand on a surface and her left hand near her chest. She has a calm facial expression, fair complexion, dark eyebrows, light-colored eyes, and dark wavy hair falling past her shoulders. The woman is dressed in a dark, high-collared garment with a white blouse underneath and a bow at the neck. She wears a hoop earring in her left ear.
