A Renaissance portrait of a woman of strong build standing in the center against a dark green background, holding a stack of two thick and round discs of cheese with a golden yellow surface. The woman wears a traditional European outfit consisting of a black outer garment with ornate gold floral embroidery, three decorative buttons or fastenings with intricate patterns in the center, and two symmetrical floral motifs near the neck. Underneath is a bright red inner garment with a high collar visible through the neckline. Her sleeves are beige with black cuffs that show signs of wear and add texture to the outfit. A white fabric headdress is intricately shaped: flat on top with triangular edges sticking out to the sides, completely covering her short dark brown hair, tucked underneath in a distinctive style. She has a neutral facial expression with rounded proportions, a straight nose and cleft chin, slightly parted lips and soft grey eyes looking straight ahead. The lighting is even, highlighting the subject without creating harsh shadows and creating a balanced exposure that highlights the details of her clothing and the large discs of cheese on the board she holds. Directly on the wall are two white drawings in a linear Gothic style filling the two upper corners: pictorial motifs of medieval cheese makers, depicting the technology of the production itself in the Middle Ages, using decorative ribbons, medieval objects and landscapes. Nearby, a large ginger cat rubs against the woman's hand, begging for cheese.
