The image is a black and white illustration in a vintage style, reminiscent of Art Deco or early 20th-century fashion plates. It depicts a woman in a dramatic pose, appearing to be fainting or collapsing. She is dressed in a flapper-style dress with a dropped waist and a ruffled hem. A large, elaborate hat sits atop her head, adorned with feathers or ribbons. Her hair is styled in waves, and her face is drawn with exaggerated features – large eyes, a small nose, and a slightly open mouth. The woman is positioned as if she is being supported by strings, suggesting she is a marionette. These strings are visible extending from her limbs and head. Her body is contorted in a graceful, yet precarious pose, with one leg extended and the other bent. Her arms are outstretched, and her fingers are long and slender. The background is plain and neutral, allowing the focus to remain on the figure. Below the illustration, the text “MARIONETTE IN A FAINT” is written in a stylized font. The artist's signature,
