This print shows the face of a person above two disembodied arms. The person visible at the top has a straight nose, high cheekbones, and long, curly hair flowing around their face, adorned with a thin cap. They are looking downward and to the right. Below their face, one arm is bent and extended, the hand clenched around an indistinct object. The other hand is near the bottom-right corner and also seems to be holding something faint. The background is a pale pink color, and the lines of the print are faint gray with some white highlights.
