Full body portrait in standing position in a baroque pageboy costume (Rosenkavalier motif). The sitter is standing by an antique column with her right hand resting on the base of the column.

She wears knee breeches, stockings, a richly decorated vest and an overcoat embroidered with floral patterns on the lapels and cuffs, a lace cravat at her neck, a baroque wig with curls and a braid tied by a stitch, and a rapier held with her left hand.

In the background a stone parapet, over the right edge of which is draped a textile coverlet reaching to the ground.
