The drawing shows a person in a reclining position. The person is lying on their side with their head turned towards the viewer and their arms resting on what seems to be a cushion or bed. The facial features are simply sketched, with indications of eyes, nose, and lips, and the hair is represented with lines around the head. The person appears nude, with minimalistic contours and no clothing details. There are no visible accessories or objects. The background is plain, without any defined details or patterns. A red stamp at the bottom right corner reads "ARCHIVAL MATERIALS".
