The figure is dressed in an orange tunic and green skirt with a leopard skin draped over her shoulder, standing before a pedestal featuring a Greek key border. The background shows a clear blue sky and thin, budding trees. The work is signed H. Andreu in the lower right and is housed in a carved gilt wood frame with a fluted pattern.
