A vertically oriented pencil sketch on textured, off-white paper depicts a standing woman with light skin tone facing slightly right. Her head tilts down, and her dark hair is gathered in a bun atop her head. Loose, quick strokes suggest a long, voluminous garment. The figure's sketchily outlined silhouette is centered on the page, which is marked with scattered small dark spots.
