The image shows a woman's upper body portrait. She is facing the viewer with slightly turned position. She has large eyes, a small nose, and a subtle expression with a beauty mark above her lip. She has curly, shoulder-length brown hair partially covered by a sheer black veil. She wears a dark high-collared dress with lace trim at the neckline and a purple sash around her waist. The background is a uniform dark oval framed within a border, and below the portrait, there is text identifying her as Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte, daughter of King Louis XVI. The image is within a rectangular frame with additional writing below the main portrait.
