A red-haired woman looks to the left, in front of a large golden celestial body. Her green garment is covered with ferns, umbels and small motifs that blend into the background.

The framing of the print brings the face and upper body closer. The loose strands of hair, the black plants and the large light shapes in the background create a portrait in which nature seems to enter the fabric.

The gold leaf from the original occupies the large celestial body behind the profile. This edition retains its nuances among the greens of the garment and the black grasses.
