The image shows a young girl walking away from the camera up a path. She is positioned with her body leaning forward, indicating movement. Her face is not visible, but she has her hair tied up. She is wearing a floral romper, socks, and dark shoes, with a bracelet around her wrist. A ribbon or string is trailing from her outfit. The background shows a narrow, inclined pathway bordered by stone walls covered with ivy or vegetation on one side and a building on the other. Trees in the background appear bare.
