The drawing depicts the upper half of a person's body facing slightly upward and to the right. The individual has arms extended outward with open hands. The facial features are outlined, with the head tilted upward, eyes looking at the sky, and lips slightly parted. The hair is short and closely cropped. The clothing is loose and flowing, resembling a robe or cloak. No jewelry or objects are visible in the person's hands. The background is a simple blue-gray color, contrasting with the reddish-brown chalk sketch of the figure.
