A woman in a black dress and large white ruff holds a small gold object
A full-length portrait depicts a woman standing against a dark background. Her pale face and light brown bob-style hair are framed by a large, white, pleated ruff extending widely around her neck. She looks slightly to her left with a neutral expression. She wears a voluminous black gown with long, puffed sleeves. Gold trim adorns the upper sleeves and a band around her waist. A delicate gold chain necklace with small, dark beads is visible above the ruff. A bracelet of small white pearls adorns her left wrist. Her left hand, holding a small, ornate gold object resembling a watch or locket, is positioned at her waist. Her right hand, also adorned with a pearl bracelet, rests on a dark, possibly green, surface to her right. The background is predominantly dark brown, with a faint, lighter diagonal architectural detail visible in the upper right corner.
