Beeldbeschrijving
This drawing is a portrait showing the upper half of a woman's body. She is positioned facing us, her head turned slightly to the right. Her facial features include pale skin, blue eyes, thin eyebrows, a long nose, and pink lips in a calm expression. Her brown hair is partially hidden under a large, black, feathered hat. She is dressed in a light blue outfit with puffed sleeves and a high collar with black trim. The background is a simple, muted grayish-brown color.
