The image depicts a young woman seated at a dark wooden table, gazing thoughtfully downward. She is dressed in a vibrant red blouse with loose, flowing sleeves, which contrasts strikingly against the muted, dark background. Her hair is styled in a casual updo with loose strands framing her face, adding to her contemplative and slightly melancholic expression. On the table in front of her, there is a lit candle providing a warm glow, which illuminates her face and the objects around her—a small ceramic cup and a transparent glass filled with a beverage, possibly water or beer. The setting suggests a quiet, introspective moment, possibly in a tavern or a humble home. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, contributing to the overall atmospheric quality of the painting, evoking a sense of intimacy and quiet reflection.
