This is a drawing of a coat's back view. The image features a simple, linear depiction of a coat as seen from behind. The coat has a high collar, two seams running vertically from the shoulders down to the waist where there are two buttons, and cuffs that are slightly flared. The sleeves are indicated with arched lines. The simplicity of the linework gives a clear representation of the garment's structure.
