Oil painting on canvas. A naked woman, wearing an oriental-style headdress, is languidly lying on a carpet of cushions and furs, surrounded by jewels and exotic fruits, and placed in an environment that looks like a loggia, due to the columned parapet on the right, evoking the oriental harems. On the back of the frame there is a hypothesis attributing to Edouard Henri Avril (1849 -1928), who distinguished himself for his gallant production and as an illustrator of erotic and pornographic texts. The painting has a patch on the back and is presented in a frame from the early 1900s.
