The sketch shows a person in a relaxed pose with their left arm bent upwards and resting on their head. The facial features are suggested with minimal lines, and the hair is short and tousled. The subject is unclothed, emphasizing natural contours and muscle structures with loose lines. The background is blank, and there is a stamp at the bottom that reads "ARCHIVAL RO MATERIAL". The composition focuses on the body's form and posture.
