The drawing shows a person seated in a large, high-backed chair. They are sitting with one leg crossed over the other, leaning slightly back into the chair, and their arms resting on the armrests. The person has straight, medium-length hair parted to one side, and a gentle facial expression with softly sketched features. They are wearing a short-sleeved top, a skirt, socks, and shoes. The background is plain, with no additional elements.
