A naked young blonde woman is sitting on a silky blue cloth, her legs crossed and bent in front of her.She is looking to the left towards a bristly shell, a Murex Pecten, nicknamed Venus comb.She is standing in profile, her chest visible, with her hands between her legs.Behind her is a window, protected by a veil that gives the painting a bright glow, with some of the subject and the parquet floor in full light.Another drape, a white veil, is present on the left of the painting.
