The image is a sketch of a person shown from head to about mid-thigh. The person is positioned in a side view, with a slight curve to the body, suggesting they are standing. The face is abstractly depicted with minimal lines, lacking detailed features, and the hair is indicated by a few strokes at the back of the head. The person is nude, with the outline of their form drawn in bold, black lines. The background is plain and white, featuring scattered ink splatters and marks. There are no visible objects or jewelry depicted, and a red stamp is visible at the bottom right corner of the image.
