A nude female figure tries to cover her naked body with drapery, possibly a white undershirt it seems to be a sleeve that she holds in her right had; she wears pearl earrings, her eyes roll toward two old men leering over the wall that surrounds her. Bottom left: water pours from a fountain head in the shape of a young boy or cupid.
