Description
A woman is portrayed in soft, impressionistic strokes, with her form emerging gently from the paper rather than being sharply outlined. She sits with her hands folded in her lap, wearing a dress with light detailing and a high lace collar. Her hair appears voluminous, framing her face, which is rendered with subtle shading that conveys a serene, introspective expression.
