This print shows a nude woman in a crouched position. She is sitting with one knee bent while the other leg is tucked beneath her. Her head is tilted forward, resting on one of her arms that is braced on her upright knee, and her other hand supports her on the ground. Her features are indicated by simple lines, with closed eyes, a slightly open mouth, and short, styled hair. The background is plain, light greenish-gray paper.
