The engraving depicts an upper-body portrait of a person facing forward with a serious expression. They are wearing a bonnet, a high-necked garment with a ruffled collar, and holding a small collection of flowers or herbs. The scene is framed by ornate scrollwork with a shield displaying a flower emblem at the top. The background contains intricate lines, and a piece of text on a scroll is below the figure.
