- Depiction of the German actress and cabaret artist who appeared among others in Josef Sternberg's "Der blaue Engel"
- Characteristic work of Kolles of the 1920s with impasto application of paint and sketch-like outlines
- The portrait shows Valetti as the sophisticated, self-confident city dweller she was
