The image shows a portrait of a woman. She is facing forward, displaying her head, shoulders, and upper torso. Her expression is serious, with large, focused eyes. Her hair is styled away from her face, possibly tied back or under a cap, with curls resting on her neck. She is wearing a historical costume with a dress featuring a tied crisscross pattern at the bodice, a lace collar, and a bow at the neck. An ornate border surrounds the portrait with the text "ANNA MARIA A SCHURMAN" around the oval frame. The background is shaded, contrasting with the lighter tones of the woman's attire and face.
