Half length portrait of a girl with dark, straight hair, seated facing forward, her left arm resting on a small circular table covered with a patterned cloth. She wears a short-sleeved dress with a repeating leaf-like pattern of dark and paler stripes. There is whiter braid-like edging at the end of the sleeves, but not around the neckline: this is low, almost off the shoulder. Dark 'buttons' are visible at the waist. She is smiling. She wears gold-highlighted gold hoop earrings and a ring on the third finger of her left hand. Lightly hand-coloured.

Plain background with dado rail visible.
