A framed pastel drawing, "Portrait of a Woman, or The Woman with the Muff" (La Femme au manchon) by Edgar Degas, circa 1876, is centrally displayed on a plain, matte medium-grey wall. The artwork depicts a full-length figure of a woman, oriented slightly to the viewer's right, with her torso and head leaning forward and her gaze directed downwards. She has reddish-brown hair styled in an updo. She wears a dark, textured, high-collared, long-sleeved top and a floor-length skirt featuring prominent vertical stripes in alternating light peach-orange and off-white hues. Her hands are clasped at her waist, holding a dark, rounded object, likely a muff. The background of the pastel is a mottled blend of light brown and white. The drawing is encased in a multi-layered presentation: an inner thin light mat, a wider light grey-brown mat, and an ornate, aged gold-gilded frame. The frame is supported by two slender, horizontal metal mounting clips protruding from the wall, positioned symmetrically on the left and right sides, behind the frame's upper section. The scene is located within the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, France.
