A portrait of the character Chava, a transgender Jewish woman. She has her arms crossed on her chest, her expression tired and kind. She is chronologically in her early thirties, but looks older because of the hardship in her life; she has a recent unilateral cleft lip surgery scar. She is of medium build, has light brown skin and dark, near-black hair and eyes, and a large nose; her hair is wavy and braided in a single braid. She is wearing a blouse with ruffles on the chest and collar but simple, practical sleeves.
While the background is mostly abstract (red, a bit of white, a bit of black), there are also clear Jaquard loom punch cards. In the front, a stalk of wheat and a rose frame Chava, crossed: a reference to the political idea of "bread and roses."
