DescriptionA single full-length figure stands facing the viewer, turned to the left slightly, standing erect with her hands folded in front of her, supporting the white drapery that clothes her form. She is depicted in moonlight, and a rising tier of ramparts is visible in the background. The frame the painting is housed in does not conform to an historic frame style. Such frames are sometimes described as 'artist's frames', whereby the artist may have directed design they required.
