A full-length figure female figure with fair skin sits in a dark interior and wears a dress consisting of a dark rose bodice and a periwinkle blue textured skirt. A lace-trimmed chemise worn underneath is visible at the neckline and at the sleeves. She holds a lacy shawl with a grayish background in her left hand; the shawl lies across her lap and falls to the ground at right. Her right arm rests on a lute and holds a palm leaf. Two fluted columns and a base are visible in the right background.
