The image features a sketch showing the side profile of a human figure in motion. The entire body of the person is visible, depicted with abstract and sketchy details. The person's posture is forward-leaning, with arms outstretched in front of them. The facial features are minimally detailed with simplified lines, and the hair is short with curved lines. The clothing is abstractly represented with flowy lines, suggesting a loose garment. The background has horizontal and vertical hatches suggesting motion, and the space around the figure is filled with dynamic lines. There are no visible jewelry or objects. The sketch is in a monochrome palette, and in the bottom right, there is a signature attributed to Barlach.
