A pencil drawing portrays a mask framed within a hand-drawn box. A domed helmet with a central crest and curved horns sits atop an oval face. Thick lines define heavy-lidded eyes, a long nose, and a gaping mouth. Pointed ears and curved, jaw-like extensions flank the head. To the left, faint, abstract sketches float in the margin. The mask is rendered with bold, dark graphite strokes on a plain background.
