The portrait-style painting shows an attractive young woman whose head is covered by a black cape. It extends over her shoulders and is closed at the front. Under the black cloak is a white, pleated hood that fits snugly over her head and covers all of her hair. The hood is tightly closed under her delicate, feminine chin. There is something Madonna-like about the woman's expression. Her eyes look dreamy, her lips are relaxed and lie loosely together. A thick wreath of colourful meadow flowers lies on her narrow head and forms a beautiful contrast to her black cloak. The splendour of the many carnations, geraniums and cornflowers captivates the eye. It is almost as if one could sense the scent of the flowers. In the lower part of the picture, more flowers are arranged at the height of the woman's chest.
While the background appears rather diffuse and blurred, the actual motif comes to the fore thanks to the strong colours.
