The image shows a reclining figure lying on a surface with a blanket or draped fabric. The person is supine, with one arm extended upwards, holding a cigarette or similar object. The facial features suggest closed eyes and slightly parted lips. The hair appears tousled and falls back. The figure is clothed in a draped garment and seems to be resting. To the left, on a surface, there are bottles and glasses. The background is plain with textural undertones.
