The image features a profile view of a person reclining on a surface with their head on a pillow or similar support. The person is smoking a pipe, with smoke emanating from it. The individual has facial features including a pronounced nose and chin, with visible lines suggesting age or expression. They wear a cap or headscarf covering their head, leaving the face visible, and are dressed in loose-fitting nightwear or a robe. The setting appears to be informal and relaxed. French text, "La Pipe Matinale" (The Morning Pipe), is visible, as well as the words "SILHOUETTES." and "N°6" at the top. The background is shaded and textured, contrasting with the detailed drawing of the person, and the focus is on the individual.
