She wears a vivid red headscarf, a white blouse, and a deep red vest, complemented by a delicate pearl necklace. Her thoughtful expression and soft gaze, directed slightly to the left, invite a sense of quiet introspection.

Set against a dark, indistinct background, the composition draws attention to the subject’s expressive face and traditional attire, suggesting possible Orientalist or Romani (Gypsy) influences. The artist’s visible brushstrokes and attention to texture indicate a skilled hand and an oil painting technique.

Presented in an ornate gold frame, this piece exudes vintage charm and would make a striking addition to any collection of classical or culturally evocative portraiture.
