Portrait of a woman as a vase painter. A woman sits on a chair, legs crossed, posing with a brush and a vase. The vase is painted with black figures reminciscent of the black-figure ceramics of ancient Greece. She wears white pants and a white off-the-shoulder top. Her long wavy hair hangs loose over her shoulders. She looks out directly at the viewer. A swath of white fabric hanging from the corner of the chair drapes down over the platform, towards the right corner of the image.
