A nude light-skinned woman wits on a bench. She is in profile facing left with her left leg crossed over her right. She appears to have some kind of headpiece or elaborate, voluminous hairstyle on her head, decorated with small areas of red and green pigment. The woman looks down into a blue-and-white teacup she is holding. She sits atop a green-and-gold shroud, and on the bench to the right is a blue-and-white teacup and saucer. Whistler’s “butterfly” signature appears above the bench, colored with brown pastel.
