The drawing features a human figure in a pose with one arm raised to the head and the other arm bent near the chest. The face is not clearly detailed, with obscured features due to the head's position and drawing style. The individual appears unclothed, and details focus on contour lines and shading for form. There are no accessories or jewelry shown, and the background is blank, emphasizing the figure.
