The sketch shows a full-body outline of a person in a reclining position, lying down with the head slightly turned to the side and resting on one arm. The person is depicted with simple, flowing lines, with minimal detail provided for the facial features and hair. The figure is nude, with no visible objects being held or jewelry worn. The background of the image is a plain, unadorned paper, with a stamped impression that reads "ARCHIVAL MATERIAL RD" in red ink at the lower right corner of the page.
