The image is an etching of a woman from the waist up. She is seated and slightly turned to her left with her face turned towards the viewer. The woman has short, dark hair and a serious expression. She is wearing a patterned garment, possibly with floral designs, and a collar. In the background, there is a large plant to her left and some linear forms that may suggest windows or architectural details. There are no visible jewelry or objects being held by the woman. The background includes abstract lines and shapes that contribute to the overall impressionistic rendering of the space.
