The image is a portrait of a woman showing her upper body and part of her lower body in a seated position. Her head is turned slightly towards the viewer, and she has a calm expression on her face. She has curly hair styled in an elaborate fashion. She is wearing a luxurious dress with puffed sleeves, lace, and embroidery, possibly accented with fur around her shoulder, and is seated on a draped fabric. In her lap, she is holding a small dog. The background features large draped curtains and ornate architectural elements, including columns and possibly a carved or painted wall.
