DescriptionThree-quarter length portrait of a young woman wearing a long skirt and a blouse trimmed with gold braid over a plain white blouse or shift. She wears a dagger on a chain, tucked in a scarf tied below her waist as a girdle, and a shawl over her head. Three strands of pearls or beads are around her neck, and a flower is attached to the lowcut neck of her blouse. A second flower and what appears to be holly leaves and berries are tucked beneath her shawl. The index finger of her right hand rests on her chin and her left hand is on her right elbow.
