The image depicts a woman sitting by a window. She is seated on a chair next to the window, with one arm on the windowsill and the other in her lap. She has an elaborate updo, wearing a long dress with a high collar, a ribbon at the waist, and sleeves covering her arms. A small decorative tabletop is next to her, holding a container. Another chair in front of her has a basket with fabric or clothing items. The background shows a dimly lit room with heavy drapes, a framed portrait on the wall, and a lattice design on the window. Light is filtering in from outside.
