Black and white sketch on paper of a standing male figure with long hair and beard wearing a long robe. The figure is centered, facing right, with head tilted upwards and left arm raised. The figure's facial features are not detailed. The sketch is in a sketchbook with a visible left edge and a white border around it. The paper appears to be aged with darker spots and marks.
