In a lavish room with ornate tapestries, a young woman with fair skin and long light brown hair lies against cushions on the floor, with only a silk sheet wrapped around her legs. A hookah and a fan at her side, with her arms crossed behind her head, she looks on as a woman at left sits playing a lute like instrument. She wears an ornate headdress, gold jewelry, a floral skirt and a low cut green dress which reveals her right breast. Behind a gold railing, in floral robes and a white headdress, a dark skinned figure stands waiting at right, looking away.
