Her body is partly covered by a veil and a flowing red cloak richly embroidered in green at the edge. Her hair falls over her shoulders. To the right and partly in back of her a musical instrument, a medieval harp. The sun is seen setting over mountains against a light cloudy sky through tall and stately trees.
