Artist, Dutch, 1898 - 1972

There is a faint pencil sketch of a young child's full body. The child is seated with their head tilted back and slightly upwards. The facial features are minimally rendered with a small nose and closed eyes. The child seems bald or with very fine hair. The clothing is suggested with light outlines, possibly a long-sleeved garment. The left hand rests on the lap with curled fingers, and the right hand is beside it. The background is plain.
