This is a drawing depicting a person in bed startled by a figure at the window. The scene shows someone lying in bed, covered with a blanket, looking alarmed as they gaze towards a window where a figure is peering in from outside. The interior setting is framed by heavy curtains, and the style is that of 19th-century caricature art. Details include a nightcap worn by the person in bed and the simple nightwear of the figure at the window.
