This painting shows a woman seated on a chair, looking down at a book she holds. She has light skin, short, wavy brown hair, and bright pink lips. She is turned slightly to the right, and most of her features are unclear. She wears an ornate pink dress with ruffles down the skirt, a high collar, and slightly puffed sleeves. The wall behind her is a reddish-brown color, while the ground is light gray. The brushstrokes in the painting are thick and visible.
