The Renaissance portrait depicts 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 fasteners 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: plain on top with triangular edges that flare out to the sides, completely covering her short dark brown hair, tucked underneath in a distinctive style. She has a neutral expression with rounded proportions, a smooth nose and cleft chin, slightly parted lips, and soft grey eyes looking straight ahead. The lighting is even, highlighting the subject without casting harsh shadows, and creating a balanced exposure that highlights the details of her clothing and the large cheese pucks she holds on a board. Two fragments of white Gothic lettering are located in the upper corners: "Boechtweouder" on the left and "Brou." on the right, indicating the subject and possibly the artist's name.
