A large blue collar rises to the lips of a red-haired woman. Her eyes look toward us, beneath black leaves and small copper squares scattered through her hair and the light background.

The curve of the shoulder and the folds of the coat fill the bottom of the image. The garment gives the portrait the sense of shelter evoked by the title, between the warmth of the fabric and the coolness of the outdoors.

The copper squares around the hair reproduce the copper leaf of the original work. The print restores its colors between the black leaves and the blue collar.
