The small-sized portrait depicts an elegant, middle-aged woman in profile, slightly smiling as she gazes towards the viewer. The background of the composition is subdued, with grayish-green hues, allowing the warm tones of the face and the brown coat to gently stand out. The image is the result of a technically mixed technique: a colored drawing (likely a combination of pastel, watercolor, and pencil) on paper, which might have been partially worked over a graphic print base. The collar of the dress features a geometric pattern, the model's lips are a pale red, and the skin tone on the face has a pearlescent sheen. The top edge of the sheet is damaged and incomplete, but the main motif — the woman's face and gaze — remains intact. The style is reminiscent of the bourgeois portrait photographs of the 1930s, as well as their hand-colored versions.
