The sketch shows a human figure from the waist up, lying down with a slightly tilted body. The left leg is raised and bent at the knee. The facial features are loosely outlined, including the face, eyes, and mouth. The hair is depicted with quick strokes, appearing short and messy. The figure is not wearing any clothes, holding any objects, or wearing any jewelry. The background is plain with no other details.
