The image shows a line drawing of a woman from the waist up, in profile facing right. She appears slightly turned to the side, with her head, shoulders, pronounced nose, subtle lips, and dark curly hair visible. She wears a hat with a tall plume or decoration and an elegant coat or wrap with large collars or ruffles. Faint outlines of other figures, including someone in a top hat, are around her. The background is minimally defined to keep the focus on the woman and her attire.
