The image consists of a sketch showing a person seated with bent legs and a slightly forward-leaning body. The individual's head is facing downward, resting on their arm, which is bent at the elbow. Their other hand is holding a mug close to their face. The person has short, textured hair and sketchy details for facial features. The drawing is a simple line study with no clothing shown, mostly using heavy lines to depict the figure's form. In the background, there is a red archival material stamp in the upper right corner.
