The image shows a sketch of a person's head and shoulders. The person has a hood covering their head, partially obscuring their face. Their hands are raised to their face, with one hand covering much of it, leaving only a shadowed outline of the facial features visible. The hair is not visible. The clothing blends with the shading techniques. The background is plain, and the sketch includes the word "DOULEUR" below the drawing and a signature by the artist, "Jules Valadon," to the lower right.
