The image depicts a sketch of a woman. The woman is shown from the waist up, leaning slightly to her right. Her hair is pulled back and she has a slight smile on her face. She appears to be wearing a dress with a V-neckline and puffy sleeves. The dress has a strap or cord around her neck. The sketch is drawn in pencil on white paper, with a black border around the edge. The border appears uneven. The overall style of the sketch suggests it was created as a study or practice exercise. The sketch seems to be from a book or sketchbook.
