This painting shows a woman from the waist up, her forearms resting on a brown surface in front of her. She has fair skin, rosy cheeks, light blue eyes, and blonde hair styled in loose curls. She wears a yellow wide-brimmed hat with a bow tied under her chin, a yellow scarf, and a pale-yellow lacy dress with long sleeves and wide neckline. The background is a blend of yellow and black.
