The image depicts a person standing against a backdrop of large windowed doors with curtains. They are in a slightly leaning position with hands gently clasped in front of their torso. The person's facial features are subtly defined with the head turned slightly sideways and wearing a headpiece that covers the hair. They are dressed in a long flowing dress with a shawl or fur wrap around their shoulders and wearing high-heeled shoes. The background features a series of large glass doors with narrow panes, through which curtains are visible.
