A vertically oriented graphite drawing depicts a barefoot man with a light skin tone in a double-breasted coat grappling with a large swan. Standing on a stone ledge, his mouth is open and brow furrowed as he grips the bird, its neck curving toward the upper left. A knife rests on the ledge to the right. A domed building appears in the background. A signature and date are at the lower left.
