A vertically oriented black and red chalk drawing depicts a woman with a light skin tone from the chest up. She faces slightly left, looking forward with light brown eyes and a faint smile. Her hair is styled in two rounded volumes above a pointed headdress. She wears an elaborate gown with a wide, pleated ruff and a vertical row of circular fasteners. Fine lines define her features against paper speckled with brown foxing spots.
