Full length female figure with arms raised above her head, wearing a sleeveless, low necked costume of pleated fabric caught in over breasts with a 'bra' decorated with leaves, pink geometric shapes and a central tassel, and around midriff and waist with narrow triangular strips of fabric decorated with pink geometric shapes and held at the centre with a small pink oval; over the hips bolder tight-fitting triangular shapes, held at the centre front by two gold triangles, with smaller pink triangles along edges and bold pink triangles edged with tiny pink triangles in the centre. From beneath the swathe falls a knee-length transparent pink skirt set with 'pearls', open at the front to reveal tight-fitting knee-length breeches decorated with triangles set with small gold 'leaves' and tassels. On her head she wears a pink turban with aigrette, from under which fall black ringlets, and on her feet are slippers with upturned toes; held in her hands above the head is a pink stole and around her neck is a pearl necklace, with pearl bracelets twined around her right arm.
