This painting is a full-body portrait of a woman. She is standing in an upright position with her hands clasped together in front of her body. Her body is faced slightly to the left, but her face is turned to us. Her face is serious, with pale skin, dark, arched eyebrows, a cleft chin, and red lips in a neutral expression. She has short, dark, softly curled hair. She wears a dark dress with wide shoulders, a V-shaped neckline, and elbow-length sleeves, accessorized with gold bangles on her wrists. The background is a dark, almost black, monochromatic backdrop that blends in with the bottom of her skirt.
