The woman has curly hair, delicate facial features, and wears an elegant gown with ruffled sleeves, a floral ornament, and a decorative sash. She poses with one hand on her hip and the other holding the drapery near her chest. The background features a detailed tapestry with tree and figure motifs against a textured backdrop.
