A side-on view, camera level with her waist, a Chinese gate garden behind her. One young woman stands alone at the center of the gate's stone threshold, supported on her left leg while her right knee bends slightly, foot resting loose. Her head has drooped forward so her chin nearly touches the collar of her red qipao, and the wide green hat sits low over her brow, its star ornament catching a glint. Both arms are folded across her chest, hands tucked into her sleeves at the elbows, shoulders rounded as sleep draws her weight down. Her long red hair is bound into twin braids; one braid hangs forward over her shoulder and the other trails behind her back, and the bow at the nape of her braid is loosened by the droop of her head. Her eyes are fully closed, lashes resting on her cheeks, no tension in her jaw. The qipao is a deep brick-red silk cut close to the body with a high mandarin collar; a band of embroidered peony flowers in pale gold and pink thread runs along the diagonal front closure from the collar to the right hip, and smaller blossoms scatter across the sleeve hems; the silk carries a faint sheen where daylight crosses her shoulder. Behind her, to the right of frame, a red-lacquered gate pillar with a stone lion base; to the left, clipped shrubs and a low wall with a tiled coping. A long slant of late-afternoon sun comes from the left, striking her left sleeve and the side of the hat, casting an elongated shadow of her figure onto the paving stones to the right; beyond the sunlight the gate's shadowed interior holds in cool blue-grey. The palette is deep red, warm cream stone, and garden green. A single leaf has settled on the brim of her hat, undisturbed. Quiet, drowsy peace.
