The image is a portrait showing the upper half of a woman's body. She is positioned slightly angled with her hands clasped in her lap. Her facial expression is neutral, with dark eyes and her hair parted down the middle and pulled back smoothly. She is wearing a dark dress with long sleeves and a white lace or ruffled collar. On her wrists, she wears bracelets, and rings adorn her fingers. The image is housed within a gold-colored, decorative frame featuring an inscription, and the background appears to be a solid, dark color that emphasizes her figure.
