The image is an artistic sketch of a human figure viewed from the back. The person is standing upright with their arms raised, possibly resting behind their head. The head is slightly tilted forward, and the hair is drawn with quick lines indicating a short length. The figure is not wearing any clothes or jewelry, and is not holding any objects. The background is plain, and the sketch is drawn on a light-colored medium. A circular stamp at the lower left side reads "ARCHIVAL MATERIALS RD."
