The image depicts a young girl in a seated position, with her full upper body visible down to her waist. Her head is tilted to her right, with her eyes closed. She has delicate facial features and is wearing a bonnet that covers most of her hair. The girl's clothing consists of a long-sleeved dress with a plaid shawl wrapped around her shoulders. In her hands, she holds knitting needles, working on a piece of knitting. Beside her, there is a basket with a ball of yarn. The background is plain and dark.
