A vertically oriented black ink drawing on beige paper depicts a woman with light skin tone from behind. Leaning toward our left, she bows her head, revealing cropped hair. Sketchy, minimalist lines define her loose top and long skirt. Hatching marks create shadows on her neck and under her arm, while rows of small, curved marks detail her back. The figure is rendered with spare, energetic strokes against a plain background.
