An indoor, close-up, chest-up portrait depicts an individual, presumably female, within Cachan, France; no specific location details are visually identifiable. The subject, with long, wavy, dark brown hair, looks directly forward. A black lace masquerade mask, featuring intricate scrollwork and a central crown motif, covers the upper face, revealing the right brown eye and red-lipsticked lips. A slender gold-colored chain necklace rests on the lower neck. The left shoulder is bare or partially clothed. Strong directional lighting illuminates the right side of the face and upper chest, creating a sharp diagonal shadow across the face. A dark blue curtain or fabric occupies the left frame, with the remaining background being dark and indistinct.
