The image depicts a young person from the waist up, facing slightly to the right with one arm resting on a surface. They have soft facial features and curly hair, partially covered by a voluminous beret-style hat. The subject wears a robe-like garment with puffy sleeves, a bow at the neck, and multiple folds of fabric. They hold a piece of paper or scroll with visible text. The background is lightly sketched with decorative elements like round fruits and leaves. The etching is monochrome with intricate linework conveying texture and depth.
