The image shows a sketch by Auguste Rodin on the right side of a theatre program from Théâtre Antoine. The drawing depicts a full-body view of a person in a seated position with one hand resting on their chin and the other arm draped across their knee. The person's head is tilted slightly forward, and while facial features lack detail, the outline suggests contemplation. The figure appears to be enveloped in loose, flowing attire. There is no visible jewelry or objects held by the figure. The background of the sketch section is a uniform beige tone, contrasting with the detailed calligraphy and printed text on the left side of the program. The text provides details about the play "Le Repas du Lion," including the title, playwright, and cast list for the performance dated to the 1897-1898 season.
