A pencil drawing on beige paper of a woman standing with a long dress draped around her. The woman has short hair with a small crown on her head. She is looking to her right. The dress covers her from neck to ankles and her arms are outstretched on either side holding the fabric. There are two small symbols on the right side of the paper. One resembles a backwards C with a line through it and another a circle with two curved tails. A small smudge is near the bottom left corner. James McNeill Whistler, Figure Study.
