The image is a portrait of a woman in a black dress. The woman is standing in front of a wooden paneled wall with intricate carvings. She is wearing a long, flowing black dress with gold accents and a high neckline. Her hair is pulled back in a bun and she is looking off to the side with a serious expression on her face. The painting is framed in a gold-colored frame with a thin gold border. The background is a dark blue curtain with a gold trim. The overall mood of the painting is regal and elegant.
