Full length left side profile of a young girl. The girl is seated on a low stool before a painting on an easel; she sits with a pad and pencil on her lap, copying the portrait. There is a box of pastels and a glass of water at her feet to the left. The wall in the background is plain, and there is a high shelf to the right from which hangs a model hand and arm. A tall candle stick on a sideboard is visible to the left, obscured by the easel.
