In this Art Nouveau illustration, a woman in a multilayered red coat and patterned scarf holds her hand over her chest. The bottom half of her face is visible, but a large blue hat covers her eyes. She stands in front of a town filled with tall, beige buildings and green trees. Flanking the townscape are two tall trees with dark trunks and bluish green leaves.
