The image shows an etching of a woman depicted from the waist up. She is seated and turned slightly to her right, with her head gently inclined to the left, looking downward. Her facial features are sketched with a serene expression, and she has dark, voluminous hair styled up. She is dressed in a dark garment with a light collar or scarf draped around her shoulders. Beside her is a wooden post with a sculpted head mounted on it, appearing to be a bust of a man, and a mannequin or bust dressed in a cowl or headscarf. The background is plain, and the etching is signed "M. Gwennet" in the upper right corner. The edges of the image are surrounded by a border of blank yellowed paper.
