The drawing shows a person from the upper knees upwards, seated on the edge of a rectangular surface with one leg bent and the other partially hidden. Their torso is slightly leaned forward. The person's hair is medium-length, dark, and loosely hangs around their shoulders. Their facial features are sketchily depicted, with emphasis on slightly angled eyebrows and a closed mouth. No clothing, accessories, or objects are shown. The background is plain and unadorned. There is a red stamp labeled "ARCHIVAL MATERIALS" in the lower left corner of the drawing.
