The image is a sketch of a person depicted from the waist up, shown in profile view. The person is seated with their upper torso slightly leaning forward and their knees drawn up. The sketch focuses on the side profile of the face, with a prominent nose and closed lips. Long, flowing hair frames the face and falls over the shoulders. The person is not wearing any clothing, and no jewelry or objects are present. The background is plain. The sketch is primarily done in black pencil lines on a white background, featuring the artist's gestural strokes and a stamp marked "ARCHIV MATERIAL" at the bottom right.
