A vertically oriented sepia-toned photogravure depicts a nude woman with light skin tone in profile, facing our right. She stands in a dance pose, dark hair falling forward. Her hands are held in curved gestures, one arm above her head and the other extended toward our right. One leg is bent at the knee, foot near her calf. Grainy textures blur her silhouette into the warm background, creating a soft, atmospheric effect.
