The young girl in the title, dressed in a blue dress, has a head of long black hair. Behind her, a huge ochre-coloured bear takes her by the shoulders with his clawed paws. They are in the forest, if we can presume by the green undergrowth. In the background, two trees, one ochre and the other black, break through the deep-blue sky.
