The image is an abstract sketch of the upper half of a human body from the waist up, shown in profile in a seated posture. The subject's head is turned to the side as if looking to the right. The sketch outlines the profile, including the nose and chin, with short hair above the shoulders. The clothing suggests an open-collared garment. The sketch is drawn with fluid charcoal lines on a plain, light-colored paper background.
