This sketch depicts a person sitting in profile, facing left. The figure has their head slightly tilted forward, with hands resting on it. The facial features are undefined, with short, rough hair. The body is outlined with loose lines, suggesting nudity. Dark shading behind the figure implies an interior setting. Shading and crosshatching add texture to the image.
