The facial features are outlined with simple lines, and the hair is drawn in a smooth, curved manner. The person appears to be wearing a loose, flowing robe depicted with broad lines. There are no detailed jewelry or objects held by the person. The background is simple, with just the outline of the bench or chair visible.
