The image shows a sketch of a woman's upper body and head in profile. Her head is slightly tilted backward, with closed eyes and calm expression. She has curly hair around her face and is wearing a textured garment draped around her shoulders. There is a suggestion of a ribbon or bow near her neck. The background is composed of cross-hatched lines creating a shaded effect.
