The sketch shows a figure in a crouching position, with the upper torso and extended leg visible. The person is seated on one leg while the other leg is bent at the knee. The head is slightly tilted to the side, looking downwards. The facial features are outlined with closed eyes, a nose, and a mouth. The hair is depicted with rough, backward strokes indicating a short, slicked-back style. The figure appears unclothed, and there are no additional items or clothing. The background is blank.
