A vertically oriented graphite drawing depicts a woman's head in three-quarter view, facing left. Soft shading and fine lines define her features, showing a prominent nose, closed lips, and an eye looking left. Darker strokes suggest hair at the crown, and a faint outline indicates her ear on the right.
