The image shows a portrait of a woman with distinct facial features. She faces slightly to her left with her head turned towards the viewer. She has large eyes, arched eyebrows, a small nose, and a composed expression. Her long, curly hair falls over her shoulders and she wears a string of pearls on her head. She is elegantly dressed in a garment with a lacy neckline and a pearl necklace. The portrait is framed with intricate designs of cherubs, floral patterns, and mythical creatures. The background is textured and there is an inscription below the portrait identifying the woman.
