The image is a charcoal drawing of a nude person standing or leaning next to a chair. The person's face is drawn in sharp lines with shadows, showing a side view. The person has short textured hair and is not wearing any clothing or jewelry. The chair is drawn with heavy strokes, distinctly separate from the figure. The background is simple, keeping the focus on the person and the chair. There is a circular stamp with text "ARCHIVAL MATERIAL RD" on the side.
