The image shows a pencil sketch of a person's head in profile. Only the upper part of the head is visible, from above the ear to the jawline. The person appears to be lying down with their head slightly tilted. The drawing captures the general outline of the face, focusing on the ear and the shading of the cheek and jawline. The hair is depicted with short, straight strokes suggesting a short haircut. There is no depiction of the person's clothing or any objects. The background is a blank page. The drawing is on an open page of a sketchbook, evident from the visible binding and adjacent blank pages on both sides.
