A half-length self-portrait of white woman wearing a brown robe over a white underdress, and a white and black wimple. In her right hand, raised to about chest level (with the elbow bent), she holds a paintbrush. In her left hand she holds a palette and more paintbrushes. She turns to her right to gaze at the viewer. To her left is a partially finished painting of the Crucifixion.
