The image shows a woman seated in a chair. She has dark brown hair in a neat updo, soft facial features, and light skin. She wears a black gown with a white lace collar, a gold necklace with a red pendant, a bracelet, and rings. She holds a red closed fan in her right hand. The background is a light-colored wall, and she sits on a chair with golden upholstery. A small round box is placed on the chair's armrest to her right.
