A woman with a blond shoulder-length bob rests her head on her right hand and gazes downwards. She wears silver and stone rings on her right hand, as well as a looped silver-toned bracelet. She wears a navy blue boatneck top, and her left arm appears to be perched on the back of a chair not in frame. She sits before a blue background.
