A vertically oriented oil painting depicts a girl with light skin tone from the shoulders up, facing forward against a dark reddish-brown background. Her brown eyes look directly at us with a neutral expression. Strands of brown hair peek from under a black hood. She wears a black high-collared garment with a circular gold brooch at the center. Broad, visible brushwork defines the composition, and a signature appears at the bottom left.
