The image shows a small drawing within a larger, mostly blank piece of paper. In the drawing, the upper body of a person is depicted from the waist up in a three-quarter view. The person is positioned slightly turned to the side. Their facial features are not highly detailed but appear to have a focus on the cheekbones and chin, with a prominent forehead. The person is wearing a distinctive hat, possibly a turban or a similar headwrap with textured lines indicating folds. The clothing is suggested by simple lines, showing a loose garment that may resemble a robe or coat. The person is not holding any objects, and there is no jewelry visible. The background of the image is plain, with the sketch itself surrounded by a wide margin of blank paper, highlighting the small size of the drawing within the page.
