A vertically oriented print in grainy black ink on yellow paper depicts a nude boy with a light skin tone. Facing our right in profile, he bends forward with one hand on his hip. To our left, two wooden shoes rest on the ground. Behind him, dark, heavy shapes fill the middle ground. In the upper left background, a small figure stands in swirling water. Below, the signature P Gauguin is visible.
