The image is a line drawing of a figure seen from behind in two full-body views. The figure wears a cloak with fur trim and stands with legs slightly apart. The head is turned away, showing curly hair under a wide-brimmed hat with a feather and pom-poms. The cloak drapes over a tunic, revealing ribbon-tied garters and detailed shoes. The background is plain.
