The drawing depicts the upper portion of a person's body, focusing on the head and shoulders. The individual is positioned slightly to the side, with face turned towards the viewer. Facial features include large, round eyes, defined cheekbones, and an elongated nose, with an expression that is calm and introspective. The hair is thin, receding on top, and it appears to be short and slightly disheveled at the sides. The person is wearing round glasses that prominently frame the eyes. Clothing includes a shirt with a collar and a dark, high-neck garment underneath. The shirt has an abstract pattern that adds texture. The background consists of dense, crisscrossing lines.
