Red chalk drawing on aged, tan-colored paper with darker spots and rough, uneven edges. The drawing depicts a man's head and neck from the back, shown from a three-quarter view. The man has short, curly hair parted down the middle and combed back. The nape of his neck and the back of his head are prominent. His left ear is partially visible. The drawing focuses on detailed lines and shading, particularly on the hair and neck. The overall appearance is that of a study or preparatory work.
