She is shown in a semi-profile view, holding a cigarette paper and admiring a lit cigarette, conveying both the product's use and its appeal. Her attire is classical, with a flowing white gown that drapes loosely, adding to her relaxed yet sophisticated pose.Behind her, the composition includes an ornamental round frame that encompasses a bouquet of stylized flowers, which further emphasize the beauty and delicacy associated with the product. The background features intricate geometric patterns and a detailed border, enriched with typical Art Nouveau elements such as intertwining lines and floral designs.The textual elements in the artwork, particularly the bold lettering of "Riz Abadie," serve both an aesthetic and functional purpose, blending seamlessly into the overall design while making the brand name prominent.

Alphonse Maria Mucha also know internationally as Alphonse Mucha (1860-1939), was a Czech graphic artist, painter and illustrator. He lived in Paris during the Art Nouveau period, and is best know for his noticeably stylized and decorative theatrical posters like those of Sarah Bernhardt, the most famous actress in paris at the time. Mucha produced paintings, advertisements, book illustrations as well as designs for carpets, jewelry and theatre sets, in what was called the Mucha style. His works featured beautiful young women in neoclassical robes surrounded by flowers which formed as haloes.
