A woman with peach-colored skin wearing a floppy hat covering most of her face, a sleeveless shirt, and a skirt sits facing our right in profile against a background of vivid pineapple yellow streaked with olive green in this nearly square painting. The scene is loosely painted with broad, visible brushstrokes throughout, especially in the yellow background. The woman’s brimmed, dark taupe hat comes down to her pointed nose. Her lips seem closed and a band of brown suggests chin-length hair. She leans back in the chair and rests her arms along its thin, black arms. She holds a glass in her right hand, closer to us. Her tank top is cobalt blue and her skirt, which comes almost to her knees, is carnation pink. Her left leg is crossed over her right, and her ankles and feet are cropped by the bottom edge of the canvas. The yellow background behind her has royal-blue lines near the edges of the canvas to the left and right.

The image shows a large, blooming floral arrangement surrounded by various fruits. The composition is made up of black ink lines on a cream background. Positioned centrally, the dense foliage and large flowers rise up, while round fruits and leaves occupy the lower portion, with some fruit appearing to rest on surfaces or alongside the bouquet.
