The artwork is a sketch depicting the upper body and head of a person in a profile view, facing to the right. The person has short, slightly tousled hair. The facial features are minimally detailed, with a focus on the outline of the face and a slight smile. The figure is wearing loose clothing, suggested by light, flowing lines. The background is plain, with vertical lines and shading that add texture to the piece. The overall style is loose, with emphasis on form rather than detail.
