The figure's left arm is extended in front of him. The drawing is rendered in reddish-brown tones with visible shading and hatching. The paper has a rough texture and appears aged with darker spots and discoloration. The background has scribbled red chalk marks. The image by Gaetano Gandolfi depicts a recumbent male figure.
