The girl's ethereal beauty is accentuated by her luxuriantly placed hand behind her neck, evoking a dreamy, lazy mood. Her traditional outfit consists of a sheer blouse, embroidered with intricate patterns, layered under a jerkin, adding a sense of warmth and texture to her appearance. The long, flowing brunette locks cascade down her back, framing her delicate features. The girl's accessories add to her allure, with a golden bangle and bracelet adorning her arm, catching the light and reflecting a sense of opulence.
