The image depicts the upper part of a woman's body, focusing on her head and shoulders. The woman's head is turned slightly to the left, with her gaze directed forward. Her facial features include large eyes, a straight nose, and full lips. Her hair is styled elegantly with soft waves, swept up and away from her face. She is wearing a simple garment that is suggested rather than detailed. There are no visible jewelry or objects being held. The background is plain, and there are faint sketches and artist notes at the bottom.
