  • The drawing depicts a person lying down, shown from head to toe, which occupies a prominent position on a page of a spiral-bound sketchbook. The person is positioned on their back with their head tilted to one side and legs bent at the knees, crossing each other.

The person is wearing a top or dress with short sleeves, and they are holding an object in their hand, possibly a small rectangular item. The background is minimal with no distinct details, enhancing the focus on the central figure, and the page itself shows signs of age, with slight discoloration and wear along the edges.
