The image is a monochromatic painting showing most of a person's body. The person is in a reclining position, leaning back on one arm and with one knee raised. The facial features of the person are sketched, with textured hair flowing to one side. The clothing is minimal, suggested by contrasting tones. The background features bold, dark strokes, with two diagonal lines present. A red circular stamp with the text "RD ARCHIVAL MATERIAL" is visible in the top left portion of the painting.
