The image displays a woman standing at a slight angle as she walks. She has fair skin, rosy cheeks, red lips, and her hair is tucked under a blue cloche-style hat with a pink flower. She wears a long taupe robe with blue embroidery, a waist-accentuating belt, blue fringes at the hem and cuffs, and multiple buttons. She holds a blue umbrella in her gloved left hand, wearing yellow gloves and high-heeled boots. Beside her, a girl with a blue polka-dot headscarf offers a pink rose from a basket of flowers. The background shows a light-colored wall and beige floor. Text at the bottom reads, “Robe de lainage, couleur taupe avec de la broderie de laine bleue. Chapeau de paille garni de fleurs.”
