The image is a sketch showing a person seated in a chair. The person's head is turned to the side, with rough facial features and short hair. They wear a loose-fitting top or dress, with crossed legs. Their arms rest on the chair, one hand holding a cup. The background is plain, emphasizing the figure and chair. The sketch has bold lines defining the figure and chair. — Woman in Rocker (recto)
