This drawing shows a black cloak with an intricate teal and gold pattern along the edges and down the middle, with a fur accessory beside it. The cloak is to the left of center and appears to have a small tail hanging from the bottom. On the right, we appear to see a close up of this back decoration, which looks like a black-and-white fur with visible hind legs and a tail. The background of the drawing is beige paper.
