The image is a charcoal sketch of a person's head and partial upper torso. The person is facing the viewer with a slight tilt, their facial features drawn with bold, expressive strokes. The hair is depicted with thick strokes covering the forehead and falling to the sides. The drawing fades out at the shoulders, and the background is plain with a stamp on the right side reading "RD ARCHIVAL MATERIAL."
