Interior with woman attended by a maid and a page. She stands next to a tapestry-covered table with a mirror and a candlestick. A profile of her face is reflected in the mirror. The page, wearing a black striped jacket over a white shirt, short black pants with a fringe at top and bottom and white silk stockings supported by red garters with puff balls, stands at the left holding a small vial. The woman wears a blue and white silk off-the-shoulder dress with gold trim. The maid, standing behind her, ties her dress. A dog rests his front paws on the seat of a chair behind the maid. Marble fireplace behind the table at the left and maroon velvet drapery against rear wall.
