The image displays a full-length sketch of a person standing with one leg slightly bent and crossed over the other. The arms are positioned with one hand against the face and the other hand resting on the thigh. The facial features are loosely defined with simple lines, and the hair is voluminous and flowing, sketched with swirling lines. The clothing is minimal, with the upper body depicted in a corset-like structure, indicated with patterns and shapes. There are no visible pieces of jewelry or objects being held. The background is a plain, neutral, textured gray surface.
