The image depicts a black and white sketch of a woman in a dress by Thomas Hovenden, titled "Standing Woman". The woman is standing facing to the right, her body angled slightly away. She has long hair and wears a long-sleeved dress with a full skirt that falls to the floor. Her head is tilted down, and her hands are clasped in front of her. The background is light gray with a darker gray shadow behind the woman, which appears to be a rectangular shape with rough edges. The overall style of the sketch is simple and elegant.
