The Renaissance portrait depicts a stocky woman standing in the center against a dark green background, holding a stack of two thick, 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 the board. Two pieces 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.
