The image displays a head and shoulders portrait of a person facing forward. The person has an upright position with their head centered in the image. Their facial features are detailed, including large eyes with a direct gaze, a defined nose, and closed lips. Their hair is dark and styled in an unruly, spiky fashion. They are wearing a high-collared garment in purple, and their ears are adorned with large triangular earrings that have a geometric design in blue and black. The background features abstract geometric shapes in warm tones of orange and peach, with a framing element that creates the illusion of a window or portrait border. The artwork's signature and date, "MNE 1980," are visible in the lower right corner.
