This is a drawing of a bearded figure in robes and a nude figure. The first figure is dressed in robes with a gesture of movement. The other figure is nude with lines indicating movement or wind. The sketch seems unfinished, with detailed ink work on the robed figure and lighter pencil work on the other. Water stains and smudges give the piece an aged appearance. The style may be influenced by early modern European figurative art.
