A close portrait of a beautiful woman with deep mahogany skin, tightly coiled black hair arranged into a sculptural crown, and dark amber eyes with gold flecks. Thick golden liquid streams from the corners of her eyes and follows the contours of her cheeks, forming small suspended droplets along her jaw. She wears a black velvet dress with an asymmetrical neckline, antique gold earrings, and a necklace of irregular freshwater pearls. Her right hand holds a tiny cracked porcelain mask while her left touches a strand of gold hanging from her chin. Behind her stands a dark gilded mirror surrounded by wilted marigolds. Warm light from a brass wall lamp creates brilliant metallic reflections against deep, soft-edged shadows.
