A vertically oriented lithograph depicts a nude woman with light skin, her back to us. Her head bows as long, dark hair cascades down her left side. She holds a white cloth near her waist. In the foreground, loose lines sketch a rumpled bed. Dark, vertical strokes create a textured background, contrasting with the soft, smudged shading of her body. Dense black marks define her hair against the lighter scene.
