The image shows a young girl seated against a wall. She is facing slightly towards the camera with her head turned a little to the right. She has a gentle expression with large eyes and is wearing a light-colored top with a collar featuring dark and light round buttons. Her hair is styled in two braids with a neat center parting. The backdrop is a worn wall with visible cracks and a portion of the brick surface is visible near the bottom half. Above the girl is a portion of a picture depicting a figure in a contemplative pose adhered to the wall.
