Two rows of lambrequins and a pleated sleeve are visible at the arm stitches. On the lambrequins are engraved fleurs-de-lys. On the right shoulder; the drapery; which acts as a masking of the breast cut; is held with a rosette-shaped button. The back of the bust is open; with the exception of the back of the head.
