The image is a drawing of a seated woman from the waist up. She is facing sideways, leaning against a table or surface with her hands clasped in front of her. She has delicate facial features, light expression, and curly brown hair flowing over her shoulders. The woman wears a high-necked dress with puffed sleeves and a large hat adorned with plumes. In the background, there is a faint sketch of a tree visible through a window.
