The image shows a full-body illustration of a person standing with hands on their hips. The person's head is turned slightly to the left, with facial features drawn in a simplistic yet detailed manner. Their hair is curly and cascades down from under a head covering. The person is dressed in a long-sleeved garment with pleated details, a fitted bodice, and a high waist. A long, flowing skirt extends below, with gathered footwear. They wear a large collar around the neck and a headpiece draping down the back. The background is plain, and the figure is positioned above a ground line in a standing pose. The illustration style suggests this is an artwork or etching.
