Visual Summary

Brief Description

A woman in a white cap and blue dress stands by a window, holding a pitcher and basin

Detailed Description

A woman stands in a room, illuminated by light from a window on the left wall. She is positioned slightly to the right of the center, facing left towards the window. She wears a white cap that covers her hair, a white collar over a dark blue bodice, and a long, flowing blue skirt. Her left arm is extended towards the window, with her hand near the window frame. Her right hand holds a silver or pewter pitcher over a matching basin, which rests on a table covered with a patterned rug. The table is positioned in the lower right. The rug is predominantly red with blue and gold floral or geometric patterns. Behind the table, to the right of the woman, is a dark chair with a blue cloth draped over it. On the wall behind the woman, to the right, hangs a large map, mostly in shades of brown and gold, with some blue details. The wall itself is a light, textured beige or off-white. The window on the left has multiple small panes, some with a diamond or geometric pattern. The light source appears to be from the left, casting subtle shadows across the room.
