The image shows a seated figure with the upper body and arms raised, possibly stretching or adjusting their hair. Their long hair cascades downwards, accompanied by delicate facial features. The figure appears to be unclothed, with portions of the legs and feet also visible, draped in fabric around the lower body. Beside them, a small winged figure holds a rounded mirror or disk. The background features a mix of vertical and horizontal shading, suggesting an outdoor or nature-like setting with the presence of tall, thin plants or trees. The overall tone of the image is rendered in soft, dark tones.
