Detailed Description
A vertical image depicts a young woman seated on a large, dark gray and brown rock, positioned towards the right side of the frame. She faces right, with her head slightly tilted downwards, gazing out towards the water. Her long, dark hair flows over her shoulders and back, with a small red flower tucked into it above her right ear. She has fair skin, dark eyebrows, and her lips are closed. She wears a light-colored, off-the-shoulder blouse with a ruffled neckline and red trim around the shoulders, paired with a long, flowing blue dress. Her bare feet dangle off the edge of the rock. Her hands are clasped in her lap, holding a dark brown fishing net that drapes over the rock and a small, dark, pointed tool. A simple, light brown bracelet adorns her right wrist. Behind her, to the left, is a calm body of water, likely a sea or large lake, with distant, hazy purple mountains visible on the horizon. The sky above transitions from a pale orange-yellow at the horizon to a lighter, almost white, pale blue towards the top.
