Description:

A woman in a fur-trimmed dressing gown sits in profile, facing right, gazing into the mirror of a crowded dressing table. The surface holds an array of grooming implements and trinkets, including small bottles, powder boxes, tall candlesticks, and scissors. Behind her, a maid in a ruffled-sleeve dress and a voluminous cap attends to her hair,  while a folding screen depicting a wooded landscape stands in the background.
