The figure is portrayed half-length with the hands clasped in a devotional attitude, typical of ancient private portraits. She wears a white coat and a decorated BLUE stole.
Setting: The person is placed in front of a dark background, with a cross and a book placed on a table covered with a red cloth in the left foreground.
Style and era: The style of the portrait suggests an ancient work of art, dating back to the early 18th century.
The oil on canvas demonstrates a very realistic excellent hand with very elaborate and well executed drapery.
