Portrait of half a body of a lady of early age, that shows a regional costume and a hairstyle touched with a great feather. The different layers are showing with miniaturist precision. The smooth qualities of the skin and the slight flush of the cheeks harmonize with the rest, leaving no room for detail with precise pictorial touches. The dark background enhances the figure and the elegance of her attire.
