Español: Betsabé en su tocador

Una mujer desnuda está sentada sobre una tela drapeada junto a un estanque, mientras una sirvienta le peina el cabello y una mujer mayor atiende sus pies. Un pavo real descansa en la parte inferior derecha, y un edificio clásico apenas se distingue en el paisaje oscuro a la izquierda.
