This painting features a woman dressed in a long, brown coat with a high collar and a matching hat. Her hands are tucked into her pockets, and she stands with one leg slightly bent. To her right is a simple drawing of the back of a coat. The woman's attire is rendered in warm, earthy tones, while the background of the painting is a soft, creamy white. The overall effect is one of understated elegance. For more information on the artist behind this piece, look up Marie-Louise Carven.
