Naked breasts and abdomen, three-row necklace, two-row pearl chain on the head, with an ornament hanging down to the forehead, double earrings, traces of hoops on the nose. A veil falls from the top of the head to the back and right shoulder. She holds it with her right hand, on which she is wearing a bracelet.
