The sketch depicts a person seated in a chair. The individual is reclined slightly, with one leg extended forward and the other partially bent. Their left arm rests on the chair's arm, while their right hand touches their chin. The face is drawn in a side profile with minimal details. The shoulder-length hair falls naturally around the head. The figure is not clothed, and there are no visible jewelry items. The background is plain, focusing on the figure.
