A vertically oriented color lithograph depicts a woman with light skin tone leaning against a dark doorframe. Wearing a long pale blue dress, her eyes are downcast as she holds a small paper. An upholstered chair sits in the left foreground. Behind her, a faded tapestry features a figure on horseback. To our right, a vase of red roses rests on a table, while a sealed envelope lies on the floor.
