A square-oriented drawing in black crayon on tan paper depicts a seated nude woman facing right, her dark hair pulled into a bun. She presses a cloth to her chest with her right hand while her left arm reaches toward the upper right. Bold, dark strokes outline her curved form, with sparse hatching shading her torso. Her legs stretch toward the bottom right. A signature appears in the lower left corner.
