The image shows a person seated in a chair, with one leg crossed over the other and an arm resting on the back of the chair. The person's face is minimally detailed, with simple lines indicating the nose and eyes. The hair is drawn close to the head without detailed texture. The person is not depicted wearing any clothing, and the chair has a plaid pattern on the back. There are no visible jewelry or objects held by the person. The background is sparse, with a blank space and an archival material stamp from the RD collection in the upper center of the image.
