The Dumb Maiden Shewn to the People

Within a circular frame, a young woman stands before three attendants, leaning on a parapet with her gaze cast demurely downward. Twelve swans populate the background above and below the group, clustered and entwined, among reeds and weeds. An inscription on the parapet reads "Bocca termala [sic]."
