DescriptionThe image is a portrait of a female figure seated at a desk. The desk is placed in the lower right corner of the canvas; the figure facing the right edge of the canvas. The figure's hair is ornately curled, her dress pale and voluminous, and her right hand rests on the deck poised to write. A glass with liquid in it is on the top of the desk and the back of a chair can be seen on the far left.
