Her left hand is resting on her left thigh. The woman is surrounded by plants and flowers, and there is a small stream or fountain behind her. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity and tranquility. The use of chiaroscuro in this painting creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye to the woman's face and body.
