The image shows a seated male figure from the waist up, with the lower body draped in cloth. The man sits in a relaxed pose, with one arm on the back of the seat and the other holding the cloth. He has classical facial features, including a prominent nose and defined jawline, short combed-back hair, and wears a toga-like garment. The figure is barefoot and there is a faint outline of a decorative element in the background. The drawing has an unfinished quality, with a sparse background.
