The image shows a sketch of a nude person lying down in a reclined position. The person's upper body is propped on the left arm, with the other arm outstretched towards them. The face is slightly tilted upwards with minimal facial features, short hair, and legs bent at the knees. The drawing style uses thick, expressive brushstrokes with minimal background details, including a bed or couch and some objects in the upper right corner. A circular stamp is visible in the lower left corner of the artwork.
