About this work
The composition shows a woman's head and shoulders in strict profile, her long wavy auburn hair falling loose beneath an ornate silver tiara topped with a small cross and hung with chains. She wears a striped shirt, set against a flattened, ornamental backdrop filled with a stylized banner, holly-like foliage, and the pale outline of a roaring lion.
The palette centers on a saturated red ground offset by pale skin and warm brown hair, with cooler blues and silvery grays in the crown and banner motifs. Paint is applied in flat, graphic passages for the background ornament, contrasted with finely modeled shading on the face, layering a naturalistic portrait over a heraldic, tapestry-like surface.
