The image shows a drawing of a nude woman sitting with most of her body visible from the thighs upward. She is slightly reclined to one side with one leg crossed over the other. Her head is turned slightly to the side, and her facial features are minimalistic, with her hand partially covering her face. Her hair is shoulder-length. There are no visible clothing or accessories, and the background consists of simple lines suggesting a room or bedding. In the lower left corner, there is a stamp that reads "ARCHIVES R.D.," and pencil-like lines cross the lower portion of the artwork.
