About this work

She stands on a polygonal plinth with the left leg slightly forward bent. On the right hand she holds a tiara, on the left an open book; her head is slightly tilted to the side. She wears a child cloth and at the temples a cap under the headscarf, over which hangs a veil. A garment falling in vertical pleats, which lies on the ground, leaves the left shoe point free. From the shoulders hangs a mantle, which is gathered under the right arm; around the waist a belt.
