The image is a black and white abstract painting of a full-body person standing. The figure is shown holding or touching their face with their hands, depicted with sweeping and thick brush strokes. The head is slightly tilted. The facial features are not detailed, and the focus is on capturing the form rather than precision. The hair is portrayed similarly with bold strokes indicating volume and movement. The figure is nude with no clothing shown and is set against a plain background. A red stamped mark at the lower part of the image reads "ARCHIVAL MATERIAL RD."
