The image features a partial sketch of a person's face, specifically focusing on the upper portion. The person's eyes and surrounding facial areas, such as the eyebrows and forehead, are the most prominent, though they are rendered abstractly and without complete detail. The sketch uses broad, dark lines against a light beige background. Surrounding the face, the text "L'OMNIBUS DE CORINTH" is boldly written above, with additional text "1f par an 86 rue Blanche Paris" appearing below the face. The background is a plain light color with no additional context or objects.
