Portrait of a young girl with a blue ribbon in her hair. The model shown in the position en trois quarts looks directly at the viewer.
Her porcelain face is adorned with ruddy cheeks and pink lips. Big blue eyes exude a confident and penetrating gaze.
Ruffled hair and facial blushes suggest the girl's sudden agitation. Perhaps the temporary irritation was directed at the painter himself, distracting her from her daily duties.
