The figure is wearing a long, fitted garment and is seated on a high throne with back rest extending out from behind the shoulders, her feet emerging from beneath her hem on a footrest. Her hair is arranged in rows of curls around her forehead with a high stephane headdress above. She holds a couchant feline in her lap, probably a small lion.
