The image depicts a standing person in full view. They have a neutral expression and facial features that include a softly outlined face partly covered by a hood. The person wears a long, flowing garment with a layered skirt reaching the ground, a fitted top with long sleeves detailed cuffs, lace, and a brooch-like element on the chest. The sleeves are puffed with intricate detailing. In one hand, they hold a cylindrical spool or bobbin. The figure is positioned against a plain background.
