A bust-length painting of a young white woman with curly long brown hair, wearing red-and-white dangle earrings, a thin gold chain necklace with a small pendant, and a white or light blue dress under a dark pink cloak. Her arms are bent around a shallow wicker basket; her right hand is positioned across the top of the open basket, holding an apple. The basket also holds at least one flower, possibly a rose.
