The image depicts a sketch on brown paper with three head studies and some illegible writing. The left side features a head with long wavy hair facing right. The center shows a head with short curly hair and a beard facing left. The right side features a head with medium-length hair pulled back, facing right. There are some sketches of clothing and illegible cursive writing on the right side of the paper. The paper appears aged with darker spots and stains throughout. The image seems to be a study or preparatory work by Nicolas Poussin, titled "Three Heads and Other Sketches".
