A painting of a white woman with brown hair gazing heavenward, with her right elbow bent and her right hand held up as though in supplication. She is depicted from about the waist up. She wears a reddish-purple dress with long white sleeves. In her left hand she holds the traditional symbols of the torture of martyr-saint Apollonia, the outsized pinchers gripping a molar.
