The sculpture depicts a woman standing with one hand on her hip and the other holding a small round object, while a bird or small animal perches on her shoulder. She seems to be leaning on a tall object on the right, which her bent elbow rests on. The woman is dressed in a draped gown that falls elegantly to her feet, with detailed folds in the fabric. Her skin is mostly white, with some patches of brown, and her reddish-brown hair is intricately styled on top of her head. Her outfit, the object she holds, and the creature on her shoulder are all blends of white, reddish-brown, and light brown pigments. The sculpture stands on a flat rectangular base.
