The painting depicts a woman in a white dress with a red cape draped over her shoulders. She has short dark hair and is wearing a long gold necklace with a pendant. Her right arm is bent at the elbow, and her hand is resting on a dark surface. The woman's face is turned slightly to her right, and she is looking directly at the viewer. The background of the painting is a muted brown color, with some darker shadows visible behind the woman. The painting is a portrait of a woman, rendered in a realistic style. For more information on the artist's use of chiaroscuro, look up Henry Macbeth-Raeburn.
