Gray rectangular paper with rough edges. Two sketchy figures in the center and upper right. The figure in the center, lower half, crouches with head bowed. The crouching figure wears a long robe. Two figures in the upper right appear to be leaning on each other. The upper right figures are mostly drawn with lines; the crouching figure mostly shaded. The background contains smudges and darker shading around the upper right figures. The drawing style appears to be simple, quick lines. The image is titled "(From Sketchbook)" by Thomas Sully.
