A vertically oriented oil painting depicts a woman with light skin tone from the shoulders up, facing our right in profile. A pointed light gray cap sits atop her head, a tuft of red hair visible. She wears a knotted white scarf over a black garment. Visible, textured brushstrokes define the warm pink tones of her face and the scarf's folds against a neutral, mottled tan and gray background.
