The image shows a line drawing of a person's body from the head down to the thighs. The person is sitting and leaning slightly on one side with their legs crossed at the knees. Their torso is facing forward, but their head is turned to the side, facing away, obscuring facial features. The hair appears shoulder-length and straight. The drawing shows a nude form with simple lines without any clothing. The person is seated on a surface indicated by lines suggesting fabric draped beneath them. The background is plain and unadorned.
