The image shows a detailed engraving of a person sitting. The person is seated in a three-quarter view, slightly leaning forward and looking downward. Their facial features are softly defined with a serene expression, and their hair is styled in waves pulled back. They wear a long, draped garment with flowing lines and their hands rest on their lap, cradling an unseen object. There is a decorative urn or vase on a pedestal in the background against a vertically lined wall. The engraving is bordered with a rectangular frame and is accompanied by a piece of Italian poetic text.
