A vertically oriented graphite drawing on light-brown paper depicts a nude, muscular man with a light skin tone. Seated on a rectangular block, he leans forward with his back toward us, resting his head on his right hand. Bold hatching and dark lines emphasize his defined torso and limbs. Behind the figure, faint sketches suggest stone blocks. The paper has frayed, uneven edges and sparse dark stains throughout.
