A horizontally oriented etching in reddish-brown ink on tan paper outlines a nude woman with light skin tone reclining. Her head rests on a cushion at our left, wavy hair framing her face as she looks down and toward us. Her body stretches to our right, fabric draped across her hips. Fine, thin lines create delicate shadows across her form and define the textured bedding. A signature is visible in the lower right corner.
