This image is an engraving of a portrait showing the upper body of a woman positioned facing forward. Her hair is styled in an elaborate high updo with decorative elements, including a crown-like accessory at the top. Her facial features are finely detailed, with arched eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, and a small, slightly closed mouth. She is wearing an opulent dress with a high, lace ruffled collar that fans out around her neck, and her sleeves are puffy and ornamented with patterned fabric. Around her neck, there is a string of pearls and a brooch-like decoration fastening her dress. She is wearing dangling earrings. The background consists of a textured oval frame with text around the border, setting her within a decorative vignette, and beneath the portrait is a section containing French text.
