The image shows a full-body sketch of a person in profile view, facing right. The person is standing with their body leaning forward, hands behind their back. They have a prominent facial profile with defined features, hair covered, a long dress with an apron, a shawl over their upper body, and sturdy boots. The background is plain, focusing on the outlined form with crosshatching typical of an etching print.
