This pencil sketch depicts the upper half of a seated person facing forward in a relaxed but attentive pose. The person's right hand holds a small object near their chest. They have medium-length straight hair, well-defined facial features with expressive eyes, a nose, and a slightly open mouth. The individual wears a button-up shirt and the background is minimally detailed with soft, abstract shading. In the bottom right corner, there is a red stamp marked with "ARCHIVAL MATERIAL" and "RD."
