The image is a line drawing of a man's right side, from head to mid-torso. He is sitting slightly reclined, possibly in a chair, with his profile to the viewer. The man has short hair and wears glasses. His facial features are drawn in a simplistic style, emphasizing his nose and mouth. He is wearing a jacket with the collar visible, and his left arm, which is drawn in detail, is bent at the elbow, holding an object resembling a notebook or a small pad that he is writing or sketching on with a pen or pencil. The background is plain, with no additional details except a stamp labeled "ARCHIVAL MATERIAL RD" on the upper left part of the paper.
