The image depicts the upper three-quarters of a seated person with partial legs. The person is sitting upright with a slight twist to the left, appearing relaxed. Facial features are not detailed, showing only the outline of the head and neck. The hair is sketched with a few lines. The person is wearing a simple outfit with short sleeves, a collar, and a visible pocket on the chest. The left arm rests across the lap, while the right arm bends casually. The background is plain paper, emphasizing the sketch's line work.
