This is a line drawing of a person's upper body. The person is seated with their head slightly tilted back, arms resting on a surface. The facial features are minimal with simple lines for eyes, nose, and lips, and a distinct round chin. The hair is shown in a simple outline. The person is wearing a coat over a striped shirt, with an object on the table in front of them. The background is plain.
