The image depicts an infant in an upright position. The upper body and head of the infant are visible, facing slightly towards the left. The infant has minimalistic facial features, with closed or somewhat sleepy eyes, an open mouth, and sparse hair depicted with a few lines. The infant wears a bib tied around its neck and covering the chest, and the clothing covers the arms. The infant is holding a garment or soft cloth in its hands. The background is plain with no additional elements, and there is text at the top of the image that reads "PREMIER AIR DE FIFI." The drawing style is sketch-like with bold outlines.
