The image shows a sketched person's upper body and part of their legs in a seated position. The person's back is partially turned towards the viewer, and their head is slightly turned to the side. One arm is resting on their lap, and the other arm is touching their face. The sketch minimally depicts facial features, focusing on the head's outline. The person's hair seems pulled back, indicated by simple lines. There is no visible clothing or background details. The drawing is done with light pencil strokes, and a red circular stamp on the right side indicates archival documentation.
