A vertically oriented pencil drawing on cream paper depicts a man wearing a wide-brimmed hat riding a donkey, seen from behind. He is positioned between two massive, rounded sacks draped over the animal. The donkey bows its head toward the right, its form rendered with rough, overlapping lines. Centered within a thin rectangular border, the sketch uses varying line weights to suggest depth against the blank sketchbook page.
