The image is a monochrome sketch of a human figure from head to mid-thigh. The figure is depicted with both arms raised and bent, hands above the head. The facial features are not defined, and the head is portrayed with hair represented by quick, dark brushstrokes on the sides. The body is drawn with sweeping strokes that emphasize the torso, waist, and hips. The figure appears nude, with no clothing or accessories shown. The background is blank, and a red archival stamp marked "ARCHIVAL MATERIALS RD" is visible at the bottom left corner of the image.
