The image is a line drawing of a person from the back in a seated position. The sketchy figure is shown with one leg bent and the foot on the ground, while the other leg is crossed over at the knee. The head is turned slightly to the side, with no facial details and just an outline of the hair. The drawing omits clothing or accessories, focusing on the body's form. The plain background highlights the pencil sketch on the paper.
