Woman with dark hair in corkscrew curls,wearing a white dress decorated with black lace down the center stands in the middle of a stage with her arms raised and her mouth open, singing. The set in the background is white with black details: a long gallery with columns and stairs leading up to it on the left and right. On the gallery and on the stairs is the opera chorus, dressed in black, looking at the woman with astonished expressions.

Woman with dark hair in corkscrew curls, wearing a white dress decorated with black lace, stands on a small stage with brocade curtains and a white backdrop showing an enlarged ink drawing of a sailing ship, rowing boats and a city harbor. Her eyes are closed, her arms are bent and she is holding her hands in a meditative position, as if she is trying to calm herself. To the left of the stage is a man dressed in white, standing in the shadows facing left. In the foreground, out of focus, a man in a top hat from behind, holding a score.
