The image is a sketch of a person standing. The figure is facing slightly towards the viewer's right, with the head turned slightly to their right. The facial features are lightly detailed. The hair appears short and possibly tucked under a head wrap or cap. The person is dressed in a long, draped garment that envelops their body, extending down to the feet, and appears to have multiple layers. The hands are positioned near the front of the body, holding the fabric of the garment. The background is a plain surface.
