The image depicts a woman seated on a chair in a relaxed posture. She has long brown hair and appears to be nude. Her right arm rests on the back of the chair while her left hand rests on her thigh. She is holding her hair with her right hand. In the background, there is a canvas with a sketch of a nude figure leaning against the wall to her left, and a framed sketch mounted on the wall behind her. Beside her chair is a small table holding a red bowl, blue bottle, and artist tools like paintbrushes. A wooden chair without armrests is seen in the foreground, and the room has a simple brown floor and a large window structure letting in daylight from the right side.
