Her facial features include closed eyes and dark, short, slightly tousled hair. She is wearing large round glasses and a bulky, ribbed knit sweater. Beside her, there is a light-colored jacket on the ground. The background shows a vast field with a large tree directly behind her, wooded hills, and cloudy skies.
