The painting shows a woman standing with her back to the viewer. She's nude, with her head turned to the right. Her left arm is bent, and her right arm is straight down by her side. The background is a deep red color. The woman's body is the main focus of the painting. The artist has used light and shadow to create a sense of depth and volume. The woman's skin is smooth and pale, and her hair is dark and pulled back. The painting is a great example of the artist's skill in capturing the human form.
