The artwork features an impressionist portrait of a young woman viewed from the side in profile, facing toward the right. Her dark hair is pulled back into a simple bun at the nape of her neck. She wears a plain, light-coloured garment with a subtle strap over her shoulder, leaving her neck and upper back exposed. Her expression is serene and contemplative, rendered with the soft, blurred brushwork characteristic of the period.
The subject is positioned against a background that appears to be a floral tapestry or wallpaper with faded, indistinct rose-like blooms in shades of pale pink, peach, and muted green. Below the woman and the floral backdrop, a solid, warm ochre-gold horizontal band suggests a table surface or a distinct division of interior space.
The overall colour palette is warm and earthy, dominated by golden yellows, soft flesh tones, and delicate pinks. The lighting is gentle and diffuse, lacking harsh shadows, which creates a dreamlike, intimate atmosphere. The painting exhibits the visible, expressive brushstrokes and romantic aesthetic typical of Pierre-Auguste Renoir, with the artist's signature visible in the upper right corner.
