This is a drawing of a checked suit ensemble. The drawing features an outfit consisting of a jacket and trousers made from fabric that is prominently patterned with a grid of intersecting lines, creating a distinct checkered pattern in mostly brown tones. The jacket is short, double-breasted with a row of buttons, and includes a waistband and pockets, while the trousers are high-waisted and wide-legged. The drawing is detailed, conveying texture and the nature of the material. The background is plain, emphasizing the clothing design itself. The lower right corner contains a signature.
