The figure leans forward over a hand mirror held in both hands near her knees. Her shoulders are bare under a white scarf caught with a rose, and the sleeves finish in wide lace flounces. Heavy folds of the rose gown are worked with gilt scrolling along the bodice and hem. She rests one arm against a carved side table where two small roses have been set down. The white base carries a gold border that follows the sweep of the skirt.
