This painting shows a close-up of a pair of sleeves. They are a light blue color with a brown cuff at the wrist. The sleeves appear to be made of a shiny material, possibly silk or satin. The sleeves are depicted in a realistic style, with folds and creases visible in the fabric. The artist has used oil paint to create a sense of depth and texture in the painting. The painting is a study for a larger work, "The Death of Barbara Radziwiłł." It is held at the National Museum in Kraków.
